    As I've aged, I've become increasingly difficult. When I was 23, I did three years OTR.

    Then I decided I was tired of being away from home so much, so I got into LTL. That was usually gone one, two or three days, then some form of home time.

    Eventually even that wasn't enough, so I got a job where I am home everyday. Zero regrets. You can keep the road.

    I’m going to see how my gas tanker application goes as stated earlier. I either want to be home daily or at least weekly, being on the road a month at a time has gotten to be too much. I miss doing normal stuff going to the movies going bowling etc even though you can’t do that stuff due to pandemic I miss it a lot and one day I can do it all again. And being home more often either daily or weekly will make having a relationship easier.

    I miss the gym. I love everything about OTR except not being able to be into the iron.
