Adjustments

Well, this week starts the beginning of a few crazy weeks. Since Ashton has a new job, he gets to start a new work schedule. Although he found out Wednesday, he couldn't find the right moment to tell me until he started talking about it at the dinner table at Thanksgiving with his family. Why this was the right moment or why he needed a "right moment," I don't know. I don't overreact at all....umm moving on.

So his new schedule, while fairly normal Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays (normal being starting at 7 and getting home at 5:30), Mondays and Wednesdays look monstrous, both for him and for me, as he won't be home until 8:30, and yes that is PM. Going from 7-8 is going to be hard for him, although the break in the day from work to do school may prove to be helpful. It kinda goes without saying that it's going to make some very long and lonely days for me.

It's going to take some adjustments to make this new schedule work, but thankfully it won't last forever. As soon as this semester is done, he'll have a more normal schedule, or at least one that doesn't include working until 8. We even figured out his tentative schedule for next semester and that one looks much more do-able. Although a normal schedule is still a couple weeks and months away, it definitely gives me something to look forward to and that makes all the difference.
