I want more.

For the past couple of days I have been searching this site and debating if this is the path that I want to take at this time. I love to write, I love challenges, and I certainly like to make money. I have been successful with a few work-from-home opportunities that I have stumbled upon but the income just isn't enough. I think part of me is scared to invest money into a failed venture and the other part of me is so overwhelmed with all that I will need to learn to get this up and running.

I am a nurse so I only work three days a week at a regular job. It sounds pretty plush but nurses work hard and are underappreciated. I can't tell you how much abuse we encounter on a regular day, it is no surprise that hospitals are finding it harder and harder to keep nurses on payroll. Hollywood has nurses portrayed as overweight, casserole-eating, nim-wits who are nothing more than minions that pass coffee and tea. I laugh when I write this because if the public only knew what the actually job responsibilities of a nurse were, they would be embarrassed. My point is, I work my ass off for not very much and I want more. Luckily, nursing does give me a lot of free time to pursue other interests. So, this is where I am today.
