Steve's been working graveyards - 5pm-5am.

The weather is bad here, too - okay, it's not Minnesota or New England , but it's bad for here.

If you think of it, will you offer a prayer for him.

I have this overwhelming sense to ask you for prayers tonight....

Thank you in advance....

Maria,
I will think of him during my evening Rosary. I really hate that night shift. Court didn't do it much, but I never felt comfortable for him or me when he was gone all night.

Maria,

Praying for Steve tonight.

I always feel so relieved when my dh's car comes driving up at night. I hate it when he works overtime (until 3am) b/c I just can't stay up that late.

Anyway, I am familiar with the anxiety you're feeling!

Dawn

Thank you so much ladies....

I don't know if I'm abnormal (no comments here Chari ) but I just don't sleep as well when dh is not home.

I woke this morning around 4:15 and finally called him around 4:25. I tried for 10 minutes and I couldn't reach him - of course, then, my wonderful imagination kicks into gear so I'm trying to supress that and be calm.

I'm repeating the prayer, "Jesus, I trust in You...." over and over and I'm calm and I try one more time.

Steve answered.

He finished his shift at 2:30am and had been sleeping in his truck since.

Ok, so how was I supposed to know?

I am praying fervently for a different job - even though I'm grateful for this one and it is forcing me to grow (up) in ways I didn't realize I needed....

But I'm still going to pray.

There's just something about the security of having your dh home at night.

Thanks, again, everyone!

I've been praying. Funny thing is I have felt like praying for you the past couple of days anyway!
