   I love the thought of having you guys as my new tribe. That's awesome. Good luck on your full! I have one on December 15th and I'm going in for a CT scan in an hour because I'm pretty sure my tibia is fractured. It's not going to go well because like...

   I wonder how hard it is to get into a nursing program? Another thing to worry about! What if someone did all that work on pre-requisites and it wasn't good enough! A 3.64 sounds good to me though!

   Ahhh. This is so refreshing. I identify with this so much. I remember a few times while I was raising my kiddos, there were a couple of comments from a few people..."When is she going to work?" said to my husband. My daughter was only 1 year old, my ...

   I commend you on starting your journey as a single mom, fresh out of a relationship. That's incredibly hard to jump into something such as this while probably being in a weakened mental state! Aside from all of the legit wonderful reasons why nursing...

    I keep thinking that. I'm going to be in my 40s either way. I'd rather be a nurse than working at Walmart or in some customer service job. I crave things that are meaningful. Thanks for the encouragement!

    Thanks for lifting me up! My science and maths in high school were trash because I had no interest in them. It's good to know that you love them now. Science and math terrifies me, I love English and writing and those have always been my strongest su...

    This is making me feel so encouraged. How old are your kids? I have a 12 year old and a 6 year old daughter. I don't work, but I do homeschool my youngest. So, that's going to be a little tricky. And yes, I feel young! That's the weird part about it....
