a quiet weekend
We just finished a weekend together as a family. My husband was home for Sat. & Sun. We went to church together and he had the boys so I had a nice chance to participate in the service whole heartedly without interruptions. Then we had a dinner invitation, lovely chicken dinner, delicious. It's difficult to go away as a family on Sun. because my husband is either gone or going. So this was a real treat. In the rush of getting lunch on the table and children ready for school Clarence found out he was leaving for CA. So its going to be another 8-9 days before I see him again. So I quickly gathered more lunch together for him too. That's the life of a trucker's wife. One of my other friends popped in this a.m. to drop something off and she was kind of frustated because she just started her laundry and then had to pack up her 3 kids and take her husband's overnight bag to work because he was going to be gone for awhile and needed his stuff.
I have had to run those errands too, usually it' s the wallet!

I would love to live closer and just pop in. For awhile I was quite lonely, other ladies pitied me. But slowly a group ladies are getting together to support each other and hang out because we don't have to go home to make supper for our hubbies like everyone else! There are some pluses!
P.S. Arlene sometime when my husband goes to OR again I'll just have to drop everything and ride along. But hubby says no more passengers until he gets a generator. He is doing his research at the end of Mar at the Louisville truck show. This generator can cost up to 10 grand so we got to make the right choice.
