I don't know how any one can work 7 days a week. I know that I wouldn't be able to do this. If I did, my home would look horrible because I'd have no time to clean and I can't afford to have a maid. I typically only work Mon.-Fri. which is usally 40 hours a week. Sometimes I do have to work overtime or sometimes I don't work a full 40 hour week.

Usually in Dec. we do have to work 1 or 2 Saturdays so then I only have one day off. As I've gotten older I need more sleep and I've found that working more than 8 hours a day is much more tiring than it used to be. You do need some time off for yourself and hopefully if you do need to call in sick, your employer will understand. Try to relax and destress. I know it's easier said than done. Take care.
