Hi I'm Emme, 47, and live with a truck driver, Joe, who has been driving for 25 years. He hauls Over sized loads and is home on average one night a week. 
We have been together close to two years. I have three children, 27, 18, and 16. Joe has a daughter who is eight and lives with her Mom in Jersey. 
I work full time as a QC inspector for a jewelry repair company and I also work part time as a phlebotomist. 
I am happy to be here with others who live this lifestyle, and perhaps help me make heads or tales of this...
