Starkid; Hi, and welcome aboard! Thank you for your post. Can you tell us what kind of work you are doing at home? I agree with you about making a change- it is scary, but only for the moment, I found. Congratulations on making those changes!

Peace
Lois

Hi Lois, Thanks for the Welcome. Well to start off I am now being a full time mom(that is my hardest job).
I also do Market research for a travel nurse company, and am a Appointment setter for another entrepeneur who with my help is getting the word out about his
business opportunity. PLUS, if that is not
enough working on a patent for a design i made some years ago. So, I love what i'm doing and best of all work my own hrs. Oh, also have a dog and a hamster.
I consider my life as rewarding now if not more as when i was nursing. But, will always keep my license. Thanks for asking

The research sounds like a cool job, how did you get involved in that? Are there opportunities for others to get involved?? Thanks

Star:

I do the assortment of Med/Surg for Facilities through a few agencies (tele, ortho, women's health, and others). I also work at an assortment of other nursing areas such as Occupational Health, job fairs, and pain clinics.

I am purposely varied to keep myself stimulated in nursing. I am often surpised to find new types of nursing I did not know about; many of these I never imagined myself doing.

I love this type of dialogue here on AllNurses; we have such an oppourtunity to help each other grow and learn. I have benefited greatly from the ideas I have obtained from this board.

Nightngale, You are terrific, I admire someone who is versatile. I always loved taking on new challanges. I never minded floating as i always learned. Like i said eariler in this thread it can get scarey. But we only go around once so, why not try everthing. Are those your kids in the picture?they are Beautiful. Hope you have a good nite take care.

Thank you for the comliments Star. The beautiful duo is mine and thank you to the recognition of their beauty (is it hard to be humble when you are a parent or what?)...

You have a good night yourself!
