Well after 3 years of doing the same thing, anything will work, cause it will be a shock to your body.

Looks alright to me. You know, you could easily move d-3 to d-2, rest on d-3, move days 4-5 up, then have the weekend off. Just me personally, but an entire weekend off helps me recover big time. You can still do cardio or other physical stuff on the weekend of course, but those 2 days give a great rest.
