Night time Working from Home

I juggle childcare during the day around my husbands hours and then work evening and nights.
I have been unhappy in the role but because of the current climate I’m dealing with it - not showing my unhappiness except when moaning at the husband 🤪

however, since everyone Has came back from furlough, my role has changed and I’m now dealing with even worse tasks which aren’t very pleasant, I’m concerned my job is now gone Due to cost cutting and don’t want to tell me and they don’t have anything for me to do Or I may lose my job for the above reason - either way, I feel no job security.

New job hunting in similar roles is t going according to plan so I’m now focusing on working from home ideas.
i have Some money saved up - but I doNt know what to pursue.  I’ve worked in all areas of office and marketing And advertising  so I’m sure that opens a lot Of areas but could people throw out some roles or venture ideas I can look into and work out insurances etc.

I’d rather have a backup ready for when things happen.

    If you are both WFH, then does it have to be nighttime?

    Where does it say OP’s husband is WFH?
    (I’ve read it 3 times and still can’t see it 🤷🏻‍♀️)
    Everything will be alright in the end so, if it’s not yet alright, it means it’s not yet the end

    Hiya,
    Husband is not WFH and has quite an important job so he is on call a lot so my current work is night as this is the only time I can work around his shifts.  If I work from home, it actually gives me more time to work as little one goes to bed at 6 whereas my current work starts At 7-8pm
