The Nightshift is getting to me!!!

I have decided why I feel so crumby lately, why I can't make a decision without changing my mind 20 times, why I'm so down alot and just a plain pain in the *** lately. It has to be the night shift! I have felt yucky lately and can't seem to get enough sleep, no matter how long I day sleep.

I just don't feel like doing anything anymore, just lay around the house, play on the computer, sleep and work. I'm tired of whining and complaining. The thing is...I would have to look for another job, because there is no day shift opening at my present job. I love the place, but it is either stay there and maybe become ill or find something during the day and leave a place I love. I haven't even seen Portland yet, because I don't want to go anyplace, after work or on my nights off. UGH!!! I have lived here for one year now!!! I'm so confused. :confused:

The VA has a day position for a LPN in their Specialty Clinic, M-F, 8:30 to 4:30, with weekends and evenings off. I live about 20-30 minutes from the VA. Also there is a position with Multnomah ESD, but it pays only $14.15 an hour. I prefer the better paying VA job. I had my clinicals at a VA hospital and loved the place!

Do you think I should try for it? I polished my resume tonight and it looks good. :D I need a change and this may be the right move. What do you think?

I hate nites too.........I have a 18 month old and a 4 yr old, and I have to stay awake until my husband gets home at 4:30, I'm always tired, never see my kids, and just ready to give it up. Plus we have mandation policies, if someone calls in, you can be stuck working on past to 3pm. It's hard on the body, family, and turns everything up sidedown
