Anyone here do/have done this? I attempted once before a few years ago after high school but I (thought I) couldn't do it. I am attempting again this fall and I'm already stressed out.
It will be worth it in the end. I didn't work full time but I had school, part-time job and an internship. It was hard but when I was finished and back to working full time I felt kind of guilty not working on the weekends. What are you planning on going back to school for?

Yep. I did it for a while to finish up my degree. Worked full time and took classes in the evening. Honestly, it wasn't fun. However, I told myself that one way or another the next few years would go by and I could either give up some evenings and have a degree to show for it, or let the time go by and still not have a degree. It was well worth it, I would not have the job I have now if i didn't have the degree. It's also a confidence booster; both from taking on a challenge and following through and actually having the degree.
Congrats! Lucky for you being on days though, I work 2:30pm - 11 pm M-Thurs and 12-8:30pm on Friday This will make it very difficult.

I did it when I was younger. Worked 6-7 days a week in a plastics factory, going to school nearly full time, remodeling a house, and raising a kid. Plenty of stress to be sure, but worth it.
Take time to rest often. Get plenty of exercise. Keep up a positive attitude. These will help keep you focused on the schooling and make home life smoother as well.
Thanks for the input, sounds just like me but without the kid (but I have a cat to love so that's kind of the same, right?)
