I apologize to all those who have noticed that i tend to vent my feelings alot on here, but this is my one and only release. My fiance and I have been working odd ball opposite schedules, and never seem to have any time for each other. By the time that he gets home from work, I am going to work, and by the time I get home from work he is going to work. We only get like one day a week to be together, and it's always interfered with family, because they want to see us and the baby. It is just so frustrating. We have already decided that we are staying home for christmas but that is so far away. I am really trying to think of something that can help us rekindle our relationship, or just anything for us to just spend time together. This is having a real effect on our relationship. I really miss spending time with him, I understand that we have a lot of responsibilites but i don't think our relationship should be completley disregarded. I mean we still deeply love each other, we just never get that together time that we so much need.
What do you do to spend time with your spouse? How do you juggle a busy schedule yet maintain your relationship? Is it possible? Please share any ideas, thanks.

My husband and I have had similar problems. We're both going to college full time and also have jobs because we have to pay the rent. On my days off, he always has to work, and on his days off, I usually have to work or go to school. We both work evening jobs, so we get home anywhere from 10pm to midnight. And on the few days that we are both off together, it seems like something always comes up. The way that we've managed to get an hour or two together each day is just to stay up really late- our sleeping and eating schedules are completely different than most peoples', because we have dinner together when we both get home between 10 and midnight, and then we usually go to bed at 1 or 2. Sometimes we don't get enough sleep because of it, especially my husband because he occasionally has to work an early morning shift. But I guess that's life. The only way we can spend time together is to give up time we would spend on other things, and since we can't give up school or work, we give up sleep.
