Robbie's New Hours


I have to admit, I'm not a huge fan of having a husband that works a late swing shift. This week his hours became even later since Icon changed the shifts to be four-tens. This means that he works from 5:00 until almost 3:00 am Monday through Thursday, while I have been working 9:00 am until 6:00 pm on weekdays...not extremely conducive for spending time together. The good news is, he shouldn't have to work any hours on a Friday for a long time! It's worth it, right? I sure hope so!

Though it's been a tough adjustment, I am so grateful that he is able to work and that his job has been so great to him. What a blessing to have a husband that is willing to run himself ragged for his wife. I just wish he didn't have to!

P.S. Isn't he handsome?

I feel your pain. Kev & I had opposite schedules for about the first 5 years of our marriage. It's so hard but it does make you treasure your time together!

My husband just got to working normal hours. He used to work 3 24-hour shifts a week while I was pregnant and during the first six weeks Haylee was born. It sucked royally, but I definitely love having him home now. I definitely think it will be worth it in the end.

Hey Carly! I'm here and alive! In fact I just finished a post...yea it's only been a couple weeks. I love looking at other people's blogs, but I myself am not the best blogger. You really do have a great husband! I'm so glad he's so good to you! How are you feeling little miss Prego?

Sounds like our situation right now. I'm so sorry. Whenever you are having a bad night alone give me a call every other week, I'm usually awake trying not to freak myself out alone.:)
