Thursday Already?

How fast time flies by!  It's already Thursday which normally would be hubby's last day at work for the week, but now that he's switched back to 8 hr shift and 5 days a week, it isn't anymore and our lives have changed.  Soon they will change yet again and he'll go on afternoon/evenings bringing another huge change into our lives.  It's going to be really interesting.  I'm already thinking maybe our main meal should be at noon if he's going to do this.  It just might be easier on us all.  Right now, Supper can go back to 4:30 instead of 5:30 or later.  That will make a huge difference in our evenings.  Actually although supposedly we had more time together with the Friday's off, I found we often were so exhausted we wasted much of the day just trying to get moving so what was the point!

For the time being, I'm hoping till January at least, he will go for 7:00 and get off at 3:30 and be home by 4pm.  So today, I'm making a new schedule for our family that will reflect that vs the later times.  The one thing it might ruin is playtime for the kids.  It gets dark at 4pm and we often let them go to a friend's place at 3;30 till 6pm and then because it's dark, they are then in for the evening.  I don't let my young daughters walk the streets after dark not even four houses up so their brother's go get them.  It is much safer that way.  Even in a small town.

Today, I feel tired, itchy, have a headache sort of, and nothing I've eaten feels right in my stomach.  I can't seem to see well again.  Very blurry.  I sure have a "bump" now days and it's hard to hoist myself off the couch already!  I'm only 17 wks!!!  Much more to come!
