A new shift

So, I don't know what I want right now.   Since we moved here unless Josh was in a class he has been working the mid shift which is either 11pm-7am or 12am-8am and I have complained about this day in and day out because he needs sleep and it is very difficult for him to get sleep with a 4yr old and a 1yr old running around the house, also I am getting very little sleep because I wake up to every little noise in the house.  Well he came home earlier this week telling me that they were switching  him to days which I don't like this shift either because it means him working the 7am-4pm or 8am-5pm Shift but I guess I should mention that added to this shift is his 1hr bus trip each way so that means he will leave the house around at 545 or 645am and won't get home till 5 or 6pm so now we are at a point where we have very little time to spend as a family.  I guess I am also affraid that I will get used to this shift just in time for him to deploy or they will decide 2 weeks after he starts this shift to put him back on mids and it will be a complete adjustment again.  I am just ranting really because I want things to always go my way I am spoiled like that.  So we are onto adjusting to a new shift and it will be a complete adjustment for all 4 of us the kids are used to having daddy home durring the day whether they see him or not, and the very limited time together is going to be stressful.
