Hard to handle but we are doing it

I'ts very hard sometimes. We have no children. But the time passes so much when he is not home. He's been lucky to have jobs where he was home more. But that has changed.
We thought being O/O would be the way to go. But the truck broke down. And of course we owed more on the repair then the loan. So now he is with a great company, but he is out 15 days at a time.
We started our relationship out like this, but I will say it sucks not to kiss him each night. We talk from dawn to dusk. Hours on end. Even we have nothing to say, we stay on the phone when we can.
We belong together so I guess that's how we do it. Truck drivers are not given enough credit. Just remember without them you wouldn't be able to live your life.
They bring you everything.....
