All change (again)

Eventually my husband is going to make up his mind which shift he's going to work on I think. He's changed his mind so many times over the last couple of weeks about switching off the graveyard to the swing shift it's not even funny!

Of course most of this has been due to the possibility of a promotion or not... We agreed longtime if the promotion came up that he would stay on the graveyard and take it because it would benefit us greatly, then it looked like the guy wasn't going to retire for another 2 or 3 years. Well what would be the point of staying on graveyard? Then the guy turns round and says oh no it's ok I can still retire in a couple of months. He's part of a different union so he won't have to pay the large cobra medical payments that would have eaten up most of his pension. Not sure if this is good news or bad news, it means for the next few months he's going to have to put up with the lousy schedule. On the bright side it means more overtime which in turn means the more money we can put aside for moving and other expenses and so forth. The downside is we have to continue to put up with the neighbour from hell and interrupted sleep until we can move. Then again we are already halfway through July one more month after this and we can do some serious looking around for a new place to live. I want to be out of our current place during September. I think given the savings we have we can afford at least to do that. Overall financially we are better off with him on the graveyard. Ok so the hours are unsociable he's going to be stuck on that shift for a good 5 years or more but long term that benefits us. We can get out of debt a lot quicker and then start to actually save up for our own place. Oh and replace eventually his car. I do want to at least get rid of one of our debt payments tho before we replace that car. Unless of course we manage to save up the full price of the car at which point it won't be an issue. Then again we need a vacation damit!
