    My dear prayer warriors who always come through for me, I have a request for you again... My husband is looking for a job that will pay enough for us to afford our 10-acre home, but that doesn't require work on Sundays. A normal schedule would be a huge bonus too! He currently works 12 hour shifts, 2 or 3 days on, 2 days off. On the days he works, he leaves for work at 4pm, returns home at 8am the next day, sleeps until 2pm, then leaves again at 4pm. He has to work two Sundays out of every month, and he gets about 2 and a half hours of sleep that day so we can go to Mass. The rotating schedule also means our life feels completely devoid of rhythm, as we never even know what day it is lol. One Monday he's working, the next Monday he's off. Each week is opposite the previous week. It's so much crazier than we ever imagined.

    God has been so good to us and we will accept His Will no matter what. But we are going to pray He can find us something a bit more stable, with the ability to truly make each Sunday a day of rest! Thank you for your prayers as we continue our "What are we doing with our lives?" saga. :ROFLMAO:

    Will pray for a more stable job, without the need to work on Sundays. ;)
