Night shift blues

[crazynurse10000]

Night shift just kills me. I am always tired. Always running my butt off at work. I never have the energy to do anything on my days off. Does anybody have any ideas or input on how to work nights and have a life??????Is it possible? Not to mention my eating habits are also all thrown off. I crave food at 0300 on my nights off.

Wow, sounds like you have someone you can really trust with your kids and that's great! I have 3, so daycare is outrageous! I know this kind of offline as to what this thread is about, but can anyone tell me about their experiences with 3rd shift daycare? I've been looking for a good one here, and they also want to charge the same price as during the daytime hours, when all my kids will be doing is sleeping at their house. No playing, no eating, just sleeping! How much does everyone elses sitters charge them for 3rd shift? Thanks--
