Many are limited to phone calls, emails, instant messaging, and texting which can become a bit frustration over time, if you ask me. It is important to keep things interesting. I’ve created a series of articles of the things me and my trucker do to stay connected. Here is the fourth idea on the list of things that me and my trucker do when he’s gone a long distance over the road for work.  Reading From A Distance  Many of you know that I’m a big book lover. My trucker wasn’t a fan of reading but I turned that around by buying books that I knew he would be interested in. Such as business, health and sports. I thought it would be a great to read books together. This is great for those couples who have limited time together, and ne

A huge thing that has helped me was our use of FaceTime. Near the beginning of our relationship

We’ve been down the home owners road before and lost our home in 2007. This time we decided to be smart and go slow like we first intended but did not do. We jumped very quickly just because we could. Our initial plans has always been to build a home on our own land in Florida

It takes a little bit of planning but we make it work. No matter what you do, in a long distance relationship, nothing will be the same as actually being able to be together. But that doesn’t mean that a relationship can’t survive. The goal is to connect and c

Girlfriend of Truck Driver: How to Not Marry for the Wrong Reason

Your family is pressuring you into Marriage? Growing up every girls dream was to walk down the ale. Thinking about the moment makes your cheeks glow. Picture yourself in a Cinderella gown and beautiful pumps. My dreams were with stiletto! As you walk down the ale everyone smiles and says, “Oh, she is beautiful! Your Prince stands tall watching his Princess come to the thorn to be by his side. Meantime life goes on! You graduate from high school. You move away and attend college. This is modern day madness. You have your career on your mind and goals to complete. Reality steps in! “You realize, I don’t won’t to get married” I want to focus on my dreams first! You dread going home on the holidays because your family is constantly on your case. Asking, when you are going to settle down and get married, have kids? Meanwhile, you have your unhappy Aunt tapping you on your shoulder telling you, “take your time…it isn’t what you expect it to be! Then your mom responds. Marriage

Confession Of a Nagging Wife

Image
Hi Warrior Chics, I must confess. In the beginning of my life being a trucker wife I was bad at nagging and complaining about my trucker leaving to go over the road. It took years before I saw the errors of my ways. Don’t judge, I’m a slow learner! During this time as a couple we endured many communication issues. First off, I didn’t try nor did I want to listen. Second, we both liked to assume things, which cause 80% of our conflicts. Last, no one wanted to admit the other was wrong. Instead, we continue to go around and around in circles of hate, resentment, and envy. Our once genuine friendship, attraction and peaceful household turned into a battleground for the devil to implement his evil plans. Something had to give! During this time I was also going through my own spiritual journey so of course it was me who initiated the change. I have learned that you can’t change anyone but your self. Therefore, I changed my mindset. I changed my respond. Last, I handed over the rest f

Understanding Men What are They Thinking…About Trucker Wives? My Trucker Wife Has Gone Nuts!

Hi Warrior Chics, Happy Friday! Today I want to express to all of you how very proud I am of your boldness of living this very unconventional lifestyle of life as a trucker wife. I’ve had a pretty interesting month for the start of 2016. I decided to change a lot this year. I was told by my clients to get back to writing on the loner wife blog. I was told to be more social and less private about the things I’m doing with my business Spiced Life Conversation. They say, many people need the information and could possibly heal in the process. So, here I am.  Trying to fulfill the goal of expressing myself and what I learn everyday during my own life as being a trucker wife. Throughout my counseling sessions. Also, during professional organizing projects. Each projects somehow turn into a coffee and conversation sessions before the decluttering and minimalist even begins, that’s just how life goes for me.   My Crazy Life As A Trucker Wife!!! It’s funny how your life lesson

Trucker Wife: Hey! It’s Been 4 Years Where Have You Been Woman?

Several people have written to ask where have I been? How I am managing my current workflow? Most of those writing are my fellow “Trucker Wives” inspired by my private practice Spiced Life Conversation a professional organizing and lifestyle management consultant company.  Here is where I help women get unstuck, get out of their funk, get organized and bring order to their lives. In addition I help newlywed trucker wives and homemakers adjust and cope to their new lifestyle as well as perform premarital counseling and wedding ceremonies.  These women are specifically interested in how I balance it all and manage a long distance married lifestyle. Therefore, I thought I would begin this year with a post to provide a statement of my absence and a overview of my current lifestyle and practice.  This year I plan to share my experience and all the things I’ve done since my break in 2011 from this blog. So, please bookmark this site and stay tune for an interesting journey…the
