Ronda -trying to get friends to undestand

I recently posted a letter about my husband being gone a lot and I am angry that it was taken the wrong way. I have no intentions on ever cheating on my husband and I know he has no intentions on cheating on me but the question I get asked most aren't you afraid of that.....and no I am not - I very secure w/ my husband he has taught me how to love again and have faith in the scared bond of marriage.
I think trucking spouses get a bad rap way too much ...most every trucker out there is there trying to support their family and make decent living -I don't a care how much money my husband makes because we work together we are a team. He is on the road a lot yes....but I work too...and sadly we don't have children together he has a son that we don't get to see that much but we have one another and I am just trying to find some kind of support base that gets the "trucking" life...its not all about lot lizards,the high speed chicken feed..etc.. that give those honest men and women trying to provide for their families a bad rap and I am sorry it pisses me off!
He had to leave early the other morning and he tried to sleep at home but couldn't cause he left his fridge plugged in ..and worried his truck would start..so I went down to his "drop" lot and we spent the night in the truck..its not the ritz but sorry for you all that sleep in your truck day in and day out --its the best sleep I get -sorry I should say in the states that still allow you to idle - I begged him to just drive a few miles to put me to sleep--didn't need it -once we snuggled in the bunk I was out like a light and I don't sleep that well at all!
This may sound crazy but put me in the bunk and good night! I consider it a luxury.....
