Often times in life things just fall perfectly in to place! We never imaged that God would be so good to us and that this new job would be such a blessing!
I am going to try and make this as simple as possible! In order for B to be a full time employee he has to get a towing endorsement. To get this an examiner has to check off that you know how to perform certain "duties," it typically takes several months! It was our understanding that it was be at least 6months if not longer before and examiner would be available for him. Well, like I said, God is good to us, he called on a Thursday to inform them he was ready to start part time (basically as a sub if someone called in) and on Friday they called back telling him that they had an examiner ready and waiting for him! It was a huge weight lifted off our shoulders! Sometimes I really don't think we deserve all the awesome blessings that God gives to our family!
As far as the new schedule it's only 4days gone then 4days home! In the long run its still the same amount of time home and gone as before but diffidently more manageable! Not to mention the fact that I can call his cell phone if I just need to chat and we are no longer rushing right before he leaves to "get everything done"! Life has changed for us, I can feel our marriage starting to grow, the kids are much happier and we are happier! Life is good.
I laughed and have said SEVERAL times about how I no longer have to fix a toilet (it can wait 4days), I no longer grocery shop with the kids, I don't have to camp alone anymore or give the dog a bath or cut the grass or hang something on the wall... my list seems to keep growing on the things I no longer HAVE to do!
My world is whole again...
