working nights
I work nights, 11p-7a and sleep while my child is at school and it works great for me. I have no problem getting up when it is time to go to school for a function and then I lay down with him at night before I have to come to work and it works out great so far.
Last nights leftovers. BTW sm
what is hot water cornbread?
It's on CMT, Tuesday nights at around 9 or 10:00.
Hosted by John Rich. Last season they had Bobby Brown, Carnie Wilson, Maureen McCormack, Julio Iglesias, Jr., Diana Digarmo from American Idol, and some other people I can't remember. They live together and have to write a a country song and perform it before an audience. Julio won.
This season there's Sean Young (crazy), Lorenzo Lamas, Jermaine Jackson, Irene Cara, some girl from American Idol, and two other guys I've never heard of. They all live in a house together to learn to write a country song and then they have to perform it before a live audience.
that will give me incentive on bad nights (sm)
I use mine every night, too, and it's made a world of difference, but sometimes it gets really old wearing it. Remembering such tragic stories is certainly motivation enough for me. My sympathies to you and your brother's family; that's too young to die.
1 to 2 more glasses of wine some nights.

Why in the world would I have to work nights?
How many people want to work, really want to work nights? First of all, it is very unhealthy for you- do you not know the link between women working nights and breast cancer? Do you not know other illnesses associated with working at night? I have never worked nights, never wanted to, never had to and hope that will always be the case. My gosh, what else do you want to down me for- now it is for not working nights? Ridiculous!
When my husband started nights
It was his decision to switch to nights and I told him if he did he had to go to bed when he got home and be up when the kids got home from school. Some nights he might take a short nap before he leaves (by short I mean an hour) but that was the compromise we made.
Just bought Ŝ Hour Sleep" - used 2 nights - like it a lot (sm)
Bought it at Food Lion. It has valerian root, 5-htp and melatonin and some other ingredients. Works pretty well and I am not tired the next day.
Agree, let him do it, you will survive 3 nights a week - sm
without him. If he can get a cheap enough place it might be cheaper than commuting, and if work would/could help pay for it to that would be great. My DH travels a lot, though it is mostly day driving, his daily drive to work is a min. of 1 hour. When he has to go to the same place for a few days that is 2 hours away, he will sometimes stay 1 night to give himself a break (company pays). He gets a very sore back from all the driving and his left leg bothers him a lot too from whatever position he puts it in in the car. Our first two years of marriage I only saw him on the weekends as he was 2.5 hours away at work (we later moved there); I had no problem with it and still don't. I'd rather have him stay and be alive (accidents happen), then drive home just so he can be here and help me with the kids, etc. Yeah, it gets a bit hectic when he is out of town but I can handle it and so can you.
A&E Psychic Children, Monday nights, NM

I have a 16yo son. On school nights, he has to be home by 9p. SM
On weekends, midnight. However, he is not allowed to be gone every night during the week. It helps that his girlfriend's parents and I are on the same page and when they are together on a school night, they are at her hourse or my house and that makes it easier to enforce the rules. Plus they do their homework together which is nice. My son when from failing classes last year to make all As and Bs this year. So I try to give him a little more freedom because of the effort he's been giving.
I bowl on Thursday nights so it's take out for the rest of the family - NM

Grey's Anatomy & Hopkins - Thursday nights. sm
Law & Order SVU and Desparate Housewives. I usually use the DVR and watch them when I get a chance.
A few nights ago Jane Valez-Mitchell on her show
gave details on the extent of injuries suffered in the recent chimp attack. This woman lost both eyelids, nose and lips and both hands in the attack. They said she may be blind with serious neurologic deficits and is still listed in critical condition. My heart goes out to her and her family. Jane also said that some of the hospital staff are actually undergoing counseling after seeing the extent of injuries.
