I was often impressed with the ways my neighbor supported and accommodated her husband’s truck driving schedule. It wasn’t easy as he could get called out any time of the day or night to make a delivery run. She would prepare a good meal at odd times of the day so he could begin his trip with a full stomach. She reserved the days he had off so they could be together. When he only came home at three in the morning, she would often put off something as simple as doing laundry so the noise would not disturb his sleep. How do you and your family cope with schedules that are not the typical nine to five? If you plan ahead and are considerate, you will be able to support your spouse, contribute to his or her wellness, and enhance your family life. Let us know if we can help. Comment here.
