Changes

Well, a new position opened up at work. I had been thinking of switching before, but decided to stay on nights. Now, an 11a-11p shift opened up. I am totally psyched to be able to switch. Of course, I am not 100% sure I will get the position, I am really keeping my fingers crossed that I do. The previous shift change would have been to 3p-3a, and it would have been worse than my current shift. Shaun and I decided we liked having our dinners together everynight. Now, we won't get to have dinner together every night, but we can have breakfast together, plus actually get to sleep in the same bed at the same time. Wow! What a concept, huh?
Other than that, I have been busy. I mean, I work, and sleep, and do some housework. In between waking up at 2am and being awake until 4pm (just in time for my hubby to come home), then I am zonked. I really hate, no HATE, nights!!!!
I am really struggling. I have been battling some minor depression lately. I think it is bad enough being on nights and not having any real order to my life, then complicated with my family/friends being across the country. I haven't even heard from my mother in a couple weeks. About once a month I will hear from a friend. Maybe. I am feeling a bit isolated and alone. It really sucks!
I have made a few friends here and there, but mostly just aquaintances. No real friendships.
Enough of my self-pity party. Of to do some laundry. Shaun is working a 24 hour shift today, so I won't see him until tomorrow night, right before I head to work for twelve hours again. Grrr. Never work nights if you can avoid it!
