My husband is leaving on tour today.  He’s been home for quite a while due to the new foster-baby we got in March.  I am freaking out a little bit but trying to stay positive.  I’ve thought of 10 things I can do while my spouse is traveling with his band. Girls Night – this [...]

Making time for “us”

I often think that Road Widows are a very lucky group. We have a special appreciation of time spent with our spouse/boyfriend/fiance. Even so, life can get busy and the time our road warrior is home can easily get lost in the shuffle of errands, jobs, kids, and other events.  Before you know it, the

Living a Double Life (from Plane Janes Blog)

I recently read this great post about living a double life on a blog I came across – Plane Janes (Side note: Plane Janes is a blog geared towards women whose husbands travel for work. We can relate there!!). It was such a cool post and something I just knew we Road Widows could relate [...]

Back At It

I’ve been a bit of an imposter lately. My husband has not been touring. In fact, he’s been home with me ever since January – helping with the kid, letting me work out, cooking some dinners, giving me some alone time, etc. Not fair to all you Road Widows out there, I know! The truth [...]

Putting the shoe on the other foot

I write this week from 30,000 feet above the earth. Work has recently turned me into the traveler, and my husband is practically a road widower!   It’s quite funny to me when the shoe is on the other foot. I tease my husband a lot about how if I called him as often as [...]

The Breadwinner

When Dan and I decided to take the plunge into this lifestyle, we had no idea what the future would hold.  He went from a full-time job to part-time touring with a new band that wasn’t making tons of money.  Our financial future was unsure.  He had a goal of how much money he wanted [...]
