Finally!



Devon was hired onto his current job with a less than desirable schedule, but after months of looking we had no choice but to take it. We just held onto the hope that his schedule would change before basketball season. But after many months of rumors and quasi promises that he would be moved to an earlier shift we had just about given up hope. Until last week, when we gave up all hope as he was moved to another department. When they moved him they made it very clear that this department was open till 10pm and someone would need to be there. We were devastated, not only was he not being changed to an earlier schedule, he was getting forced into a later schedule. We both had it! After some less then desirable thoughts about his company, we decided if they were going to do this, he was going to start looking for another job, ASAP! Well, I'm happy to say, but a little embarrassed to admit that after all the trash talking, they told him they were putting him on the 7-3 schedule. WHAT A BLESSING! Now, he'll get to referee, as much as his little heart desires. Which is great for two reasons: 1. He LOVES it! 2. It's all extra cash in our pocket.

Now that Devon is working a earlier shift, it means that I get to go into work earlier. So, I decided to start working 4 ten hours days. That way Devon and I can get up at the same time and with his referring we'd get home about the same time and I have a whole extra day off during the week. This is only the first official day of our new schedule, but I'm already loving it!

That sounds great! I'm happy that his condition as a high-performance athlete won't suffer...
