Trish - we have to do continuing education to stay registered, which means a few lectures and alot of reading of journals. I am working part time at the moment. Just every Sunday and a few Saturdays. It means our family life is very limited but we need the $$$$ (who doesn't). It also means DS doesn't have to go into childcare. My DH appreciates how hard it is when he's being Mum on weekends and I usually come home to find him collapsed on the couch - dinner no where to be seen, and the house a mess. But he's a great dad and looking forward to finally contributing to this cycle i.e visiting "The Happy Room" as we like to call it. Poor guy hasn't had too much action lately so is looking forward to this bit. Sorry if TMI :-#
