The Good News... Hubby comes home this weekend!! yaay!! the guy who rotates with him has decided now that he CAN do a 60 on 60 off rotation. THis is what Roy wanted in the first place, but originally Jim (the guy he rotates with) said no. Apparently his wife has heard why Roy wanted this and INFORMED her husband that he was going to cooperate. *grin* This is the best for us since it means Roy will be off for 2 months and then go back for 2 months and then be back in time for the baby and be able to be home for at least a month after the baby is born. It also means that since he'll be working right before the baby, we'll have MONEY. *lol* Always a good thing. After the baby is born he and Jim will go back to the normal 75 day rotation.
The Bad News is that this puts him going back to work around July 12th... and that weekend is the Gathering. So, he may not be able to go... and I may not be able to go. If he leaves during the week, then I can go. If he leaves after the weekend, we both can go. But if he has to leave during the weekend, then I can't go because he needs me to drive him to the airport. While neither of us are happy about this, we agreed that it's more important for him to be on this schedule so that he's home when baby is born. *smile*
So, keep your fingers crossed that we still get to go to the Gathering! and think of me this week while I'm frantically trying to get the house cleaned.. oh, and Rags? Roy said no maid services. *lol* he said to do as much as I can and that he'll take care of the rest when he gets home.
