Monday thru Friday

Have you ever wanted something so bad, and then you get it. You wonder what you were thinking? I have a bitter sweet moment. I will now officially be working Monday - Friday. I wanted this so bad, thinking that it would be so nice to have the weekends with the kids, always able to go to church. Well....now I realized that it was nice having a day off during the week to have the peace and quiet that comes with 4 kids being in school. It was so nice to have John and I with no kids. NOW, we won't have that. Now, we will be home with the kids without the peace and quiet. Now, I can't surprise the kids with cookies when they come home from school. Now, I can't sleep in because it's so quiet. Now, when I need some intimate time alone with the hubs, it's not there!! Now, I will be able to do the "saturday" chores along with the rest of the family. Now, I will be able to know what is going on in the ward. Now, I won't be asked if I'm the new lady at church. I will be able to be there for every sunday! I will now be able to not request weekends off. I will now be able to have the consistency of a weekday job. I guess it's not so bad. Hey, at least I have a job!! I am in a unbalanced state right now. Happy vs not happy because of my work schedule.
