It’s been a while since I made a more personal update on the blog. I have mixed feelings about what direction I want to take the blog in so maybe that’s why. Shutting down the blog and moving on to other projects has also crossed my mind lately. It does make me sad to think about shutting the blog down, but I think since that thought has crossed my mind quite a few times in the last few months it’s time I probably consider it instead of pushing it one side.
Danny is still on the road, I think he’s somewhere in Texas right now. We got to spend four days together last week so that was a nice change. It’s hard having him out on the road all the time, but at least it forces me to be more independent. Hopefully his home time schedule won’t be like this forever, but for now this is fine with me.
There is nothing glamorous, exciting, or adventurous about being a trucker’s wife. Unless you can travel with your spouse full-time (so jealous if you are). Thankfully it’s just ourselves for now but I can’t even imagine how some spouses go through this with kids. Well, that’s not true exactly. I am a part of a Facebook group for spouses that’s kind of like a support system, but all it does is make me feel super sad.
I really don’t want to dwell on shared issues in this Facebook Group so I muted notifications. If I keep busy and stay on track on my routine I feel a lot better and less stressed about things. Now that my classes are ending soon I’ll have a lot more free time to spend on a project that I’ve been thinking about starting forever so I can’t wait to make that happen this summer!
I’m looking forward to completing my degree in the next year. I’m actually kind of sad this semester is almost over because I had awesome professors and nice classmates this year. I’m excited for what the future holds and I know that it’s going to be full of good things!
For now I’m going to take a blogging break. I’ll also be joining Danny on the road in two weeks so I’m going to use this post to officially say that I’m on my vacation! -Diana
Your blogs will be missed.
Enjoy your time on the road. 🙂
Thank you Robyn!
Lovely post 🙂 I’ve never even thought about how hard it must be to be a truckers wife so honestly, hats of to you for being so strong about the whole situation. I love this post and I love your blog (as well as your blog theme) – I really hope that this break isn’t too long and you come back BUT I admire you for following your heart.

Thank you Chloe! I’ve been so burned out lately. Thankfully things will slow down for me in about two weeks and then they will pick right back up again because we have to move! Ugh. I think taking some time away from the blog will help me recharge and get ready to create great content again.
