To renew, endorse, or go inactive

It's time to think about the nursing license again. Every two years I have to get on the horn, knock out continuing education credits, and fork over a fist full of money to the Board of Nursing in a state so very far away. This year finds me in serious doubt that I'll ever actually need that license, not in that state ever again.

Perhaps I'll request an endorsement and obtain a license in the state I actually reside in. It seems kind of silly that I would make such a commitment like buying a home, but not feel committed to the region enough to seek licensure. Though, it's mostly since I don't foresee working outside the home for another.... I can't even fathom when I'll be free to leave all the kids at home and not be minding them constantly. Often I do imagine all sorts of enterprises I'd like to get involved in. Given the many changes that have taken place in health care, and my personal disappointing experiences as a patient (or patient's mom)  I'm not sure it's a good fit for me anymore.

Or I can just let the thing laps and throw away the investment... go inactive.
