New Schedule Update
Day one-- Lilyana and I were both ready and walked out the door at 9:05am. I didn't make it very far because I couldn't find my keys anywhere. After pacing around, looking in every room, it came to me ... the night before we went shopping and we took the stroller.. ah ha ... my keys are in the stroller cup holder .... which is in Matt's car... at work. I was able to get ahold of Matt pretty fast and he brought my car keys home to me. What a great husband. Despite all of that I was only 15 minutes late for work.
Work went by pretty quickly, there was always something going on. Everyone on day shift was very welcoming.
Lilyana didn't have such a good day. She had a run in with a rocking chair at daycare. She came home with a small cut and dark purple / pink bruise over her right eye. Matt says she looks like she was in a MMA fight.
Day two -- I was only 5 mins late today, at least I'm getting better. No injuries to report today at daycare. After work today we headed to the YMCA for a brief swim The Y has free admission all this week so we're gonna take advantage and plan on going back on Thursday also.

The things I'll miss
Monday will be my offical first day and 1st shift. 9:30 - 5:30pm. Everyone is asking if I'm excited. I am, I'm very excited to finally have the "normal" life. Get up, go to work, come home, make dinner, go for a walk , go to bed. I guess it's been so long since I've worked a "normal" shift that I'm a little nervous. For one, getting out of the house by 9am get Lilyana to daycare will be a feat in itself. Secondly, I hope I can keep up with the work flow on first's. There's alot more going on, more phone calls and more distractions. and Lastly, our financial state. I'll be taking a pay cut since I will not longer get a shift premium and also daycare cost will triple. It's time to pitch the wallet and enjoy my family.
Although I can't wait to ease into my new lifestyle there will be a few things i'll miss about 2nd shift. For one I'll miss all my friends, yeah, i'll still get to see them but there won't be the quiet time to catch up and have a nice conversation . Second shift is so laid back, it's quiet so I can concentrate on a single project or give a customer my undivded uninterrupted attention. That is nearly impossible on first shift. I'll miss breakfast at Pancake House with Jayme, Roger and his wife Tammy.
I'll miss sleeping in, not having to set the alarm. and I'll miss the sunsets.
Here's two that were just a few days apart.
