Y'all are making me so homesick my heart hurts! I was born in Memphis, raised in Jackson, and most recently lived in Franklin. Those of you in the area, do you know the O'More School of Design? Great, beautiful school- I graduated from there with a degree in Interior Design and immediately decided that I wanted to do something that mattered much more to the human race than installing French drain systems. I have been imprisoned here in New Mexico for 6 years, and reading all of your posts has made me even more determined to get home. A Tennessee Allnurse get-together is a great idea!!!!!

I was so glad to read all of your posts- you are giving me great ideas of where to work when I finally get back home.

Go Vols! Burn Opry Mills! Send me some country ham!

:imbar I was probably being a little sensitive, myself, MRed94. I see so many of these things floating around in cyberspace that I have grown weary of them, especially when my non-Southern friends share them with me.

Please forgive my outburst and, if possible, join us this spring in Tennessee!

ditto what Joy said....I get tired of the ribbing I take from non southerners going back to my early 20s when my ex was in the army and we were living in germany, and met some folks from california and I swear they looked to see if we were wearing shoes when we said we were from tenn

Well, thought I'd write since I will be moving to Nashville next Friday...

First I have to get through 3 finals, then I pack and drive down the following day (from New York)...

Got into nursing school for this January and am so overwhelmed already! In addition to moving there, I have to buy all the books ahead of time and begin reading. I've also been advised to purchase shoes, uniform, and stethescope... no idea where or which to buy though. :)

I guess it'll all come together when school starts but I'm so anxious/excited/nervous.

Happy Holidays,

Spec

I also live in Tn. I did the LPN thing first because of children and finances and then after a year I took the challenge test and it tested me out of 15 hours and it only left me with 11 hours to finish my RN.

Actually i will be moving to nashville early next year, would like to sooner but $$$ is a needed thing first. Looking at murfreesboro and other areas. I am from a union hosp. and am kind of nervous about the hospitals, i would normally look for a magnet or a union but i dont think there are any, SO anyone know of a nurse freindly facility i should look at, i need 12's . . . hard to come by where i am now, but especially so far from my family with my kids they are a must when i move. I cant wait to come down ! !

MTSU is Middle Tennessee State University. They do have a BSN program. So does TSU (Tennessee State University). Both are reasonably priced. It just depends on which one will mesh better with your prereqs & which one you can get into sooner.

Good luck in your decision-making process!

I live in a tiny town in southern, middle Tennessee. We are moving to Murfreesboro when I graduate (120 days:D ). DH works in Smyrna and I hope to work either in Murfreesboro or Nashville.

I HATE OPRY MILLS!!! I wish we still had Opryland.
