I'm another one that is dying to get into the workforce... and I am also interested in nursing.
I am going to apply this September for next years Nursing courses, and pray that I get in!
I am only going to do it part time (as Aidyn is so young) which will stretch it out to 6 years (2 subjects per semester). But in 3.5 years Aidyn will be going to prep, so I can probably take on a fulltime load then...

Goodluck with whatever you decide to do girls!
