I'll be home alone...
Richard starts work on Monday which is great. Unfortunately they changed his shift and he will be working 3pm to 11:45 pm. This sucks because we won't see eachother. We will still have the weekends and a few hours of sleeping together but I will miss eating dinner with him and going to Happy Hour.
Although this sucks I am so happy that he will be working again. Not to mention he got a raise so that's even better. I'll just have to learn to cope with not seeing him during the day. I will have to keep busy by going to the gym, taking part-time classes in the Spring, and studying for the LSAT. I guess in a way it works out.
Anyone one else have work schedules that limit time spent with each other?
Re: I'll be home alone...
My work schedule just changed drastically, but it means me commuting in and out of the city with DH everyday now. It's great cause we are pretty much forced to talk to each other a lot more - which I like. But we also get into a lot more silly squabbles. We also get snippy about who is or isn't ready to leave home or work at a given point. Ok, so maybe it's not so great. hahaha
I guess I would much rather that than not seeing him at all
Does Richard's schedule stay that way indefinitely?
TTC since 2010

During peak (Thanksgiving-New Years), DH helps out his FedEx exmployees driving and delivering. He usually works 12 hour days including Saturday so that sucks. Right now though, he's jobless since he sold his routes, so I'm enjoying it while it lasts for the next few weeks.
Although we argue more when he's home and not working too
Not anymore, but...
Last winter when Don lost his full time job he started working for hours delivery pizzas. I work 8-5 and he went into work at either 4 or 5 so I never saw him, at all. He worked 7 days a week, but we had a few hours on the weekends at least. Then when he got a job doing maintenance at an apt complex, but the pay was so little he still delivered pizzas at night during the week and some during the weekend. After 2 more months of that crappy schedule he got a better job as an installer to where he could stop delivering pizzas during the week and just do a few hours on the weekends...this has continued for the past 6 months. It's not ideal, but I get to see him at night during the week and for a few hours each day on the weekends.
You'll get through it. It'll be rough to adjust, but then you'll be able to accomplish so much stuff while he's not at home. If you're anything like me, I don't get much done when Don's home b/c I know I need to spend that time with him, but when he's gone I get a lot done!
Our schedules are about to become insane. I'm about to start back with my PRN work at a nursing home which will be 2-3 nights a week plus every other weekend and I baby sit 2-3 times a week.
Jeremy is about to start night classes on M/W and he has tennis with a buddy on Th so it's looking like Sunday mornings will be spent in church and with him.
