    I know. Thanks Lil May. We have been studying together. I hope it works out for us. The thing I am most worried about is being in such a small space together for such long time periods. Is there any good advice regarding maintaining a positive relationship in this setting?

    welcome can't speak from personal exp. but since you will both be new and running as a team. be patient, be loveing and appreciate the little time you have. although you will be sharring space your sleep schedules will be opposite. truck should be running most of the time 20-22hrs a day. pluss dock time 14hrs x 2=28 hrs in a 24hr day does not leave time for silly bs. take good care of each other good luck
     
    transportHER Thanks this.

    Thank you, we are definitely anticipating a challenging first year. We balance each other very well. My husband is very laid back and super supportive. It would be me that will have to work on the keeping the patience :biggrin_25525:.

    It appears that you and I both are experienced Graphic Designers. I plan on doing some online multimedia study while on the road. I figure, web design is the future in regards to being a successful designer. Have you had experience with Dreamweaver and Flash?

    Some with Dreamweaver, but it's older experience. I'm going to be brushing up on the new design languages in a couple of weeks (have to move first!). Haven't done anything with Flash yet, but will be learning that as well.

    I'm sticking with print work right now, as they don't change the language on that stuff!
