I just retired from 21 years in Special Education, and now I take care of elderly people in their homes. I can choose the hours, so I usually work about 3 days a week. I have a retired husband, 2 yorkies, 3 big mixed breeds, 2 cats, and we live in the country (mountains) all by ourselves. Our nearest human neighbors are about a mile away. When I worked in Spec. Ed., I worked 14 hour days (2 of those hours were commuting). So, I know what you guys are going thru. I am happy to be at home finally. I love being with my girls and hubby
