I worked for 7 years 11pm to 7am Monday through Saturday. 1 day off per week. If you go to bed when you get home Sunday morning, you waste most of the day that you could be spending with your family. If you stay up, you are lucky to get more than 2 or 3 hours on the back end, guaranteeing you will be wasted at work Monday night. You can hopefully get blackout curtains and live in a quiet neighborhood. No kids would be helpful. Expect to be tired a lot. You learn to get by with less sleep after a while. Not all is negative though. You can always get a doctor appointment, stores aren't crowded, and you can easily get a tee time. Yay!

Damn that sounds rough. Thankfully I'll be working 5 days so I'll be off from 6.30am Friday until 10.30pm Sunday, so I'll have some decent time off.
We actually have a large shed that I was considering building a small room inside from plywood and insulation (for temperature and sound) as there are other people in the house and we'd probably be waking each other a lot.
