Worn out with 2 jobs and school

:idea::idea:I am currently working 2 jobs. Med-Surg for 3-12's and a LTC for 3-8's. I am also going to Chamberlain RN to BSN online. I'm worn out from working the two jobs. I tried to quit the LTC but they made me feel so guilty that I agreed to work PRN. Now, I'm working 3 days a week there and 3 days at a hospital. Does anyone else feel exhausted working 2 jobs?I want to keep the hospital job and just concentrate on school and my kids. Any ideas on how to extricate myself from the LTC? Any ideas to help me grow some cojones and just quit the LTC?

It's not easy, but you have to do what's best for you. If that's quitting at the LTC, then be nice about it, give them two weeks notice, but remain firm.

She can't stop you from quitting.

One question:

Do you love your kids more than that job?

If not, why do you persist in putting it before your children and your well being?

Stop making excuses and start believing that you are the most important person in the world. You are nothing but a warm body to them and they will manipulate you until the cows come home as long as you let them.
