I'm not but mum is, she has a 2pm-10pm shift working at a nursing home. Like you she's on double and a half as well. So it works out good, we all spend the morning together then she earns some good money in the arvo.

Night shift last night and tonight. And back for dayshift 30th and 31st., but atleast I get to count in 2013.

There were only 3 business's open in the main st on Boxing day and the rest of the town was closed, people probably figured that everything was shut.

Tell the boss had he advertised you were open he probably would have done a lot better, and you would have had to actually do some work (for a change )

Have been doing skeleton work yesterday, today and Monday but it's been real quiet so mixing time doing other things at home.

Trade off is that I dont go back to the office until the 10th of Jan.
