I finally finished. For the last two years I have been in nursing school, and my pastimes have been on the wayside. I just passed my boards and got my state nursing license yesterday. I have a stack of unread books that have been sitting for two years, and its time to get to them. I think I'll start with this:

Nursing school is a bear! I could see where your time for anything was limited- not that nursing will be less exhausting. The energy levels of nurses I've observed would shame a marathon runner.

Have some books to add to your pile, if they're not already there.

I'm leaving for Florida tomorrow, on the way back I'll be passing through Dalton, GA just in time for their Civil War antiques show. Think I'll have to stop...
Congratulations on your license. Enjoy your trip. Plenty of other stuff to do in Dalton too. Where you going in Florida? Heading that way in about 6 days myself.
 
Congratulations on passing the boards from a fellow nurse (retired). I well remember eating and sleeping nursing for a few years and having a limited life outside school. I felt like I had been released from prison when I graduated. I graduated in '77 & we spent two days testing and had to wait three months to hear if we passed. How things have changed. Enjoy your life.
