It just might be time to hit the road

And I was wondering if you guys could help me out with a few ideas.

I'm a trucker and I've been a local driver for a while now. I used to drive long haul, but I came in off the road to settle down and try to start a family. But it's just not happening for me, and at 37 I'm afraid I'm getting a little long in the tooth to start having kids. A lot of women my age seem to agree. :)

So I'm thinking about buying a truck and hitting the road again. It's much more adventurous than what I'm doing now and there really isn't anything holding me here. I've got my condo for sale and I was thinking about buying a place closer to work, but I just might sell this place and not buy another. That's where you guys come in.

I want to be able to be gone for long periods of time, but I need some kind of arrangement to get the bills paid. I'll still have a cellular bill, truck payment, insurance, credit card, and such. What's the best way to handle this? I'm thinking P.O. box. Is there any kind of service I could subscribe to that would help me out with this?

Hi,
I have always enjoyed your posts. You can't do online banking? Or have automatic bill payments set up with whatever bank you are using? A lot of those items you listed have electronic billing also. I don't see this being an issue as long as you have the money to pay them. Just a thought and it is late, keep posting and I wish you the best of luck.

Peace

I appreciate the kind words about my posts.

I don't know about the credit card, but I suppose the others could be set up for electronic transfer. I'm not sure about that though. I've never done anything like that.

I would see if I could get electronic bills for everything and pay them on line. If that isn't an option, do you have a trusted family member who would let you have your bills sent to them? If my brother were going to hit the road, I'm pretty sure I would be getting his mail and probably paying his bills for him. :)

unless your family is dysfunctional like mine. :D

but we would still help each other out. I have a brother and 3 sisters and am pretty tight with all but one of the siblings, but I'd still help her out.

I do have a sister who is 12 years younger than me who I get along with pretty good who seems to be better adjusted than the rest of us. I don't know why I didn't think about her before. I guess it's because I don't see her much. I wouldn't trust the rest of my folks as far as I could throw them. :)

Thanks for getting my gears to mesh.

I hope everything works out for you.

and I am rarely wrong.

Really can't explain it.
