Am I crazy?

For going back to school?

I just got an acceptance letter to St. Joseph's college to get a bachelor's degree in nursing. I do enjoy school but nursing school was so stressful the first time around. I'm hoping that continuing will help me with my skills ond confidence at work.

How has anyone else done with combining newlywed life, and work wth school? I'm a little nervous about that.

Go for it...Joe started going back to school and while it's tough in the end when I get mad we don't have as much time together I remember it's for our future. My mom is in school for her BSN now and it's way different then when she got her ADN. She said this is more theory and papers then anything. So if homework and papers were the stressor then yes it will be tough, but it's not as sparatic as the ADN program

Your not crazy I am back in school now. My day is pretty packed: I work 8-5 then have class and get home around 9. If you need advise on what has worked and not worked for me feel free to FM me. The key is to do your assignments the same day you get them. That way you have your weekends free to spend QT with DH.
I am proud of you for going back! its rough but just think of the end results.

Thanks everyone for your support.

My week is going to be pretty jammed packed. I work three overnight shifts in a row, so I may just have to work mostly weekends during the semester.

But luckily I can take advantage of vacation time when needed!!
