My job is dealing with my students, although in the last 3 weeks, I've taken 3 days off. One was for the anniversary of Nana's passing, one for a migraine, and one to spend time with Nick. We drove up to North Bend and had lunch at a really cute little restaurant. Then we went up to Snoqualmie Falls, did some kissing, and took the scenic way home. It was a really nice day; we don't get to spend enough time together anymore. Graveyard shift has been hard on us, although Nick is loving it and it's definitely better than swings when I didn't see him except for the 10-15 minutes I could stay awake to hear about his day when he got home at 11 pm. Now he is just working on getting enough good sleep. Since working ambulance in 24-hour shifts, his sleep pattern is really messed up and he wakes up very easily. As a result, he is sleeping all day long before his shifts, so I'm only seeing him for an hour or two every day. This is going to be a tough schedule when we have kids . . .
In other news pertaining to Nick's job, we are only 3 weeks away from being off FTO, which means that Nick has almost passed this stage of observation and will soon be in his own squad car. He's very excited. I don't think about it so I can maintain my sanity. He's doing wonderful and I'm very proud of him!
