Profile For Joe L.

Hi all!

I'm not new to the site as I have been browsing it for a long time but just recently decided to register and post. I need some help getting trucking off my mind. I know that sounds weird but its driving me crazy. I currently have a job I love but trucking has always been this passion I have kinda had on the side. My dad and all of my wife's family drive trucks so its something I have always been around and hear about constantly. I love trucks and have had some time driving (not licensed though just in parking lots and stuff). For a while I actually thought about starting a career in that field but realized quickly that its not the right time. You see I am in my late 20's, married and two children (ages 5 and 9) and being away from them drove me bananas! I know I know. I have read the threads about people with young children should wait about driving until they grow up which is solid advice but its something I want so bad that it physically hurts! Bottom line, its not an option for me at the moment no matter how bad I want it due to I would miss out on so much of my kids but I need help getting it off my mind. I can't stop wanting to drive! And to make matters worse, I work at a DC (Yep see trucks all day long). Anyone with advice???
