does your hubby/so work? mine is so intent on providing for his family that most of the time he works waaaaay too much! i love him and i know he's just trying to take care of us, but sometimes i'd rather have a little less and then have more family time. pretty much EVERY saturday, 8 out of 10 anyhow, he's working. he's a truck driver and has his own trucking business so he drives truck 4-5 days out of the week and then when he's home he does his reapairs on his trucks. he also sells tractors on the side so he is constantly doing mechanic work on them too. he was gone this week 5 am monday morning till last night. now he's working on a truck today and he says he will be again tomorrow. i just want to cry because i want him to do something with me and our lo. he will be leaving bright and early monday morning again....
anyhow..how do the rest of ya'll feel about it?

my SO works about 50 hours a week and I'm a SAHM. He gets home everyday by 3:30 but has to work every Saturday morning so that sucks. It can get lonely at times but it's what works best for us

that's nice that he gets home by 3:30! what does he do in the evenings? one problem with running your own business is then evenings and weekends are all still available work hours.

My husband is a truck driver so he works way harder than he should.

He is gone from about Monday until Thursday or Friday....so, it sucks. But it pays the bills. I work too, though, so I can't really say anything about how much he works.

Just a standard 52 foot van traileras of right now...he has pulled just about everything under the sun though. lol

I'm a proud trucker's wife.   Even if it sucks at times, I know that even though he doesn't get the respect he deserves, he helps keep this economy going.

yupyup! without truckers nothing would happen. i'm a proud trucker's wife too. i actually go with my hubby most of the time. i must say, most truckers deserve the reputation they get, but there are the few good men out there!

varies if he's on call I neverrrr see him I feel like then some on call weeks there's no issues.

Now he's going to go back to school AND start up a website AND start a home studio oh and we're moving in Feb and just got engaged. So too much!
