Workin' on the Night Shift

I have officially finished my second week of night shifts, and I'm off orientation (scary). Thankfully, not as bad as I had expected. I guess it helps to be on your feet for 12 hours, makes it kind of hard to fall asleep. Brandon has been so wonderful too and gives me all the peace and quiet I need to sleep during the day. My days off are a different story though. I don't know if it is the night shift or the pregnancy (probably both), but my sleeping is so out of whack. I keep waking up at the most ridiculous hours of the night, wide awake! The one thing I absolutely despise about this night shift business is the traffic!! It is horrible! When I am driving home in the morning I am driving with everyone else and their dog who is trying to get to downtown Boise. It's painful!

All in all it has been good. On the way home the other day I even got a little treat, and the light stayed red long enough for me to pull out the camera.




I love where I live! It is not uncommon to find deer just hanging out. One day while I had been out on the greenbelt and was on my way back home a couple of deer crossed the street right in front of me! I just think it is too cool! These deer were just eating some grass on a small vacant lot next to some office buildings, at a very busy intersection, smack dab in the middle of morning rush hour.
