[quote=Anonymous]I work 10.25 hours/day M-Th and 9 hours on Friday. My commute is usually about 35 minutes, but on bad days can be 45-60 minutes in evening rush. If I had to regularly commute 1.25 hours each way I fear that I would burn out extremely quickly, and I'm in my early 30s. I think your concerns regarding the 10 hour days and long commute are valid. If possible I recommend either 1) staggering work schedules with your husband to cut the hours 2) hiring a p/t person to either relieve your MIL by 4pm at least a couple days each week or do 1-3 full days to reduce the number of days your MIL has 3) have your MIL live with you during the week. Hopefully you can find a solution that has your MIL involved as a caregiver in your infant's life while reducing the potential for burnout. [/quote]
