I am going into my 5th shift working and 4th night shift in a row and have 1 left after this, a day off which will be my recovery day and then into three more evening shifts. If it were not for missing most of the waking hours it wouldn't be so bad. I've been sleeping from about 10am till about 5:30pm which is pretty decent sleep but, not much time to do anything before I have to get ready for the next shift. By the time I have my coffee and catch up with everyone and everything, eat something, shower it's 9:00pm and I have about 90 minutes before I have to leave. Tonight less time since I have to stop and get some protein bars. I am loving it though. Have been at womens shelter for few days and have felt that I've really been able to provide some meaningful counselling session through the night with women. At the mens shelter for next two nights so looking forward to the change. My sister will be here in three weeks and so excited to see her. I'm going to get my bedroom painted this week-end. Christmas season is looming and I am beginning to look forward to it. I am so very grateful for everything in my life.
