I've got a future dilemma

Or rather, I should say I have a dilemma about my future. I'm also quite sure I've bored my friends and family to near coma about this so I will blog instead. Or is that blored. hahaha. Ya, whatever.
So. The three paths that I see in front of me are 1) to remain in this level of nursing and be able to concentrate on my family, friends, writing, cooking, gardening and other creative relationships and so create the life I enjoy the most. The down side being boredom with my work 2)Become a nurse practitioner with the down side of having family, friends, writing, cooking, gardening and other creative arts impinged upon or outright destroyed during the graduate school and certification process. The schooling would be interesting and the work would be interesting and, in theory I could return to work with people in poverty and, still in theory, could work abroad and be some use. 3) I could get a graduate degree in public health or a nursing degree and then go into management and so do some really interesting work and the graduate school experience would be alright -even interesting for family and friends. The down side would be not being so very useful in a public service kind of way and possibly never having a future abroad.
Argh. Anyone want to vote?

merry christmas :P

I had a really great Christmas. Stressed, but not really and worried that I wasn't doing enough, but not really caring either...well sort of not caring.
Got a new attitude about christmas which includes ALOT of sherry, presents, ALOT of lights, parties, ALOT of food, a few cards, and ALOT of music of all kinds in all formats.
:P to all the rest.

The best part was a fine flurry of sherry, presents, lights, parties,food and music all from 4 to midnight on the 24th. It was brilliant. :-)
