I'm exhausted just reading this! Its amazing how much women take on and your right...not one notices or appreciates it. In the end its actually expected. I think I once heard someone make a comment to the effect that we wanted to be liberated so we got everything we wanted...yeah right.
I myself have suffered from "second shift" I've worked long hours and have been required to come home, cook a meal, help with homework, run errands, pay bills and keep the house clean. There was a time that when I never stopped working..I think I actualy ended up collapsing from the exhaustion. Now my second shif consists of school work and sometimes additional work from the office that I have to complete after hours or I'll fall behind. This is a new level of second shift.
Good luck to you as you continue to work your second shift. I'm sure if they paid a salary for this second job (think about the night differential) you'd be pretty well off.
