   Working as a nurse is light-years away from nursing school. I did not enjoy nursing school and have had a 25+ year career that has been much more fulfilling than school would have led me to believe. You've put a lot of time, effort and money to ...

   It's so exciting to be so close to finished! Yeah for you and Yeah for me! I can't believe I'll be done in a couple of weeks. It was really hard going back to school after being out for 20 years. We should be very proud of ourselves. :)

   Anyone else see the irony of a discussion board post about end of life issues when most of us are getting together with our families this week? I think I've been a nurse too long. Good news--this is week four!!! :) Happy thanksgiving everyone!

   I have been working on next weeks assignment because I have family coming and want to have some free time from school. It is more of the same. I just wish the assignments could actually be completed in the 5-6 paragraphs they state in the directions...

   When I had evidence-based last Spring semester there were a couple weeks when there weren't papers due, but quizzes instead. I personally like that better because you put some time into studying, take the quiz, and it's done. I liked that class abo...

    I know-- I have done that many times in the past (sat on stuff until later in the week). This week I work at the end of the week and needed to be done with school by noon today (or shortly after). I had instructions 'clarified' in one of my earlier...

    Do we reference the case study material? As I think of it. I'm guessing yes, since its used in the assignment. What do you all think?
