Today turned out really nice. It was a warm, sunny morning... just perfect for the kids lessons at the outdoor pool. It was so nice to sit at the edge of the pool just watching them.
I received the nursing refresher information that i requested in the mail today. I have mixed feelings about it but getting my registration back again seems to be the most logical course of action at the present time. It takes between 4 and 10 months to complete depending on how fast you want to get it done with a max time of a year.
I still have to look into the post RN BN (nursing degree). It takes 2 yrs to get a nursing degree if you are already an RN. I'm not sure that would be the smartest way to go at the moment though and i may need to do the refresher course anyway in order to take the 2yr post RN degree.
Some of you may be wondering by now why i'm looking at getting back into nursing. If you've followed my blogger with any regularity you would know that i basically retired 8 or 9 years ago from nursing with no intention of going back. Well after 21yrs my husband and i have talked about the possibility of splitting up. No decisions have been made yet so it would make sense that i get working on some way of supporting myself and the kids and prepare for the possibility.
This will likely be the only time i refer to this particular subject and i will probably delete this post in a couple of days... ... there are many factors involved and it remains to be seen how things will turn out. That is really all i am going to say until there is some type of resolution one way or another.

"I have heard it all my life,
A voice calling a name i recognized as my own.
Sometimes it comes as a soft bellied whisper.
Sometimes it holds an edge of urgency.
But always it says:
Wake up my love.
You are walking asleep.
There's no safety in that."
