Here is my plan - am I crazy?

Published

I'm 31 years old, I already have a BA in another discipline. I have a husband who is also currently going to college for the first time (part-time, 2 classes/semester), he works full-time - he is going to school to be a physician assistant. I work full-time as a legal sec'y with plenty of time to study at my desk (I currently surf the net 85% of the day because of the lack of work - this is also the reason for my career change). We have 2 boys an 8 year old and a 4 year old.

I have about till the end of 2010 to finish my pre-reqs, then I'll be able to start my nursing courses/clinicals. I plan to enroll in a school that has an evening program. I will cut my hours at work to working 3 days a week (I would like to graduate with as little debt as possible). Once I'm finished and am finally working as an RN - my hubby will quit working (he has to because the last 2 years of his physician assistant program is rigorous and full-time study is needed) so that he can go full time and finish up. - I will be able to afford it working as an RN (we've lived on 1 income before when I stayed home with our kids when they were babies).

AM I CRAZY or is this doable? Anybody in a similar situation?

Your thoughts are appreciated...

It seems doable to me. Don't see why it wouldn't be. Anything can be doable if you have a plan and a back up plan and put your mind to it!
