It becomes a vicious cycle after awhile..<br /><br />Good on you for figuring it out and giving yourself some time to take care of you. :-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17109531002159599556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136763350284688012.post-56045125206528103912009-05-06T02:32:00.000-04:002009-05-06T02:32:00.000-04:00im a nightshifter for the past 11 years so i under...im a nightshifter for the past 11 years so i understand totally. i too stay for the differential. it makes a beeeeg difference. also, i am not a morning person. i am best at night. i come alive at night. but it sucks that we have to lose the next day because of it. but you MUST get your rest or you wont be able to be there for anyone else. take care and KNOW you are not ALONE. let the guilt go. it wont change anything, AND you are doing something important.<br /><br />CChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09910078888984045131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136763350284688012.post-63459782183729838892009-05-05T11:44:00.000-04:002009-05-05T11:44:00.000-04:00I'm so glad you are taking care of yourself withou...I'm so glad you are taking care of yourself without losing sight of what else is important too!

There are really not a lot of options in my area that are flexible and affordable. <br /><br />So I found a lady in the neighborhood who would watch him for half the cost of the daycare and give me a lot more flexibility on hours. Plus she has a family with 4 boys next door, so he has built-in playmates.AdriansCrazyLifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04463022076036044242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136763350284688012.post-40168413680338433422009-05-04T08:59:00.000-04:002009-05-04T08:59:00.000-04:00You have to take care of yourself, first and forem...You have to take care of yourself, first and foremost, or you will be of no help to anyone else.

I missed out on a visit and, of course, feel guilty for it, but I needed the sleep. Day shifters don't always understand the stress our bodies are under working these unnatural hours. I have also missed out on weekend activities and such. <br /><br />*hugs* Hang in there.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03808321718135225905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5136763350284688012.post-28734895928797242452009-05-04T06:46:00.000-04:002009-05-04T06:46:00.000-04:00((Cyndy)) Not much longer and it sounds like a go...((Cyndy)) Not much longer and it sounds like a good plan for next year.Karen in Texashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16276582805740924266noreply@blogger.com
