Sacrifices

Fitu works out in Tooele which is about 30 minutes away from where we live. Him being all the way out there is hard enough but also he works a swing/graveyard shift so we hardly see each other during the week. I work from 7-3:30pm and right when I get home we say Hello and kiss each other Goodbye and we repeat that same routine everyday. The good thing is that we both have weekends off so we take advantage of that family time. Today he got a job offer for a position in town but the problem is he would be gone more and also he would have to work weekends and holidays:( We've been talking about it and still cannot decide on a decision. Having him close to home means less worries but also less family time but more money and saves on gas. What to do? I give it up to those couples who make bigger sacrifices than we do and barely see their families but couple times a month. Take advantage!

  1. OMG! We're in the same boat. I totally get how you feel. Graves pretty much such and you're lucky for getting weekends with your love. My husband pretty much works Mon-Sat...some weeks we get lucky and he gets the weekends off. It was always hard for us to look for another job for him because of how good he was getting paid, preferably a day job, but what made our decision easy, was to us, family time is worth more than any pay rate out there. It took us awhile to figure that out, but I know you two will make the right choice (: Goodluck!!
