    I'm going to read my book in a few minutes, want to finish it today so gonna crack on for a few hours before getting some shuteye

    Have you heard of this new sleeping pattern where you're awake for 4 hours then sleep for 20 minutes after each 4 hours? Sounds ideal!

    Have you read The millionaire next door by Thomas J. Stanley, some of the reviews on Amazon say its a bit boring
  • Well Amos, Zippy and Cathybird, I'll bid you goodnight and sleep well. I'm gonna hang around for a while and see if any other insane people drop in.

    Have you not thought about going to a community care agency as pay is not bad and the more agencies you are with the more you get to pick your work load. All these are self employed agencies but on contracts so you get your full 4 weeks per year.
    I am a community support worker when working and work for 4 agencies I had regular clients on the given days i wanted to work and when they wanted me to take on another one or two I had the choice to accept or refuse. My wages were almost like clockwork every week I earned around £500 and nurses get a lot more than support workers.
    Ok I did work a fair few hours every week but that was my choice and i have children who never missed me as i picked my schedules very carefully from the onset to work around them..
    Just a mere thought dont know if you have been that path or not just thought i would mention it.

  • Thanks Crystal may look in to that. There is one very well paid agency locally but the work is so last minute and can be a very long way away,and i don't drive, but i'll make some enquires.
