I have been a nurse for nearly 30 years, have worked full time all but 6 of them when my kids were little. I am tired of being tired. My quality of life could be better with one less day a week. Life is too short to be miserable. I have gotten so I'm nauseous just thinking about going to work. I think we could work it out financially. The best time of my life was when I only worked 24 hrs a week. I so very much miss those days. Any advice would be appreciated. Any body elses experiences might help.
