Still sitting....has to be frustrating


So, talked to Chuck last night, so we could celebrate Alex's birthday over the phone, with him. I called him when we were going to sing and she could tell him all about her exciting day! (notice the new haircut and ears pierced!) I think he was happy that we included him in on this celebration he was missing. And so frustrating...stuck in Laredo at the terminal for all this time. At least this time he's not in someone else's truck - he's in his own with the tv and the computer...his phone doesn't work unless he goes inside. Yesterday he was complaining that it was 104 degrees! Today it's ONLY 81....huge drop for them, I'm sure...but I would LOVE to have that rather than this dreary rainy cold we have! He's getting tired of sitting on the truck. He said at least when you're going somewhere you're concentrating on something instead of waiting for the qual com to beep with a new destination! Only 5 more days!! You can make it, honey! ( hopefully he'll be home on time). He has to be ready at a moment's notice to leave, though!

I'm enjoying getting to know some girls on facebook through the Life as a trucker website they started a wives' support group ...it's GREAT. All different kinds of truckers' wives - some get to see their husbands more often...some hardly ever. I'm still getting used to any time away at all. It's very difficult to have him gone. But can't wait until he gets here!! Things are finally getting a little better for me, I hope they get better for him really soon!! Still waiting for everyone to be healthy, but every day's a little better! Must work on some homework...Hopefully the next time I talk to Chuck he will have some good news!! We love you sweetie - we're supporting you!! Stay safe.

Over and Out.
