What direction would you go in if you were forced to leave nursing (due to many of the stressful conditions that you face) or if you voluntarily left?

I'd go back to writing full-time, and this time I'd keep at it until I could make a decent living.

I loved the science classes. I'd probably go back to college and get a degree in bio or chem. A professor once tried to convince me to ditch the nursing and switch my major to chem...why didn't I listen????

I couldn't think of anything I'd rather do than what I am doing right now..Stressful times and all. The variety is what keeps me going..No 2 days the same..The only thing I'd rather do is vacation some place warm and sunny!!!

Actually, I'd like to run a B&B in a summer touristy area and spend my winters in Florida, when my B&B is closed.
