Ever want to just leave?

I've had one of those weeks.  I just want to sell off about 90% of my stuff, find some low census tropical island, buy a house there and move.  No job, no stress just warm sandy beach, ocean waves, hubby and my pets.   I mean to the point I was looking at places to move to online lol.  

Heck at this point, I just want to sell my house, and move someplace new so there would be more opportunities for RN work.  I'd love to work in an ICU, but well, I don't want to have to drive 80 min one way to have that opportunity. Esp not in the winter.  That would SUCK!  But it was always a dream of mine when I went to nursing school to work in an ICU, and here I am 21 years later, and still no ICU job. Sigh.  Sometimes small town living sucks.  Yes, they are great things about being from and living in a small town, but man opportunities is not one of them.    I've literally thought "well how bad would it be if I was part-time there"  Um, slightly less driving lol.   But maybe it would be worth it.

Anyone want to build a really big hospital about 30 min or less from my house?  One with a dedicated ICU, OB, med surg, and ortho floors?   I'd go work in Des Moines to get lots of experience so I could work ICU after you get it built!


So here I am, looking at places to live in Costa Rica lol.  I have enough makeup for 5 people, so I could do with less and do with buying less  Looks like depending on where you live the temps are just were I like them, low 80s for highs, 60s for lows.  Affordable, friendly to Americans, good health care.  Gee, why am I still here??? LOL.

This is my one night after 4 in a row.  Man, I'm sick of working.  I want to cut back to part-time so bad. I'm tired of being tired.   And I'm tired of feeling frustrated about things I don't seem to have control over.   Its draining on a person.   And I do feel a little drained.

Maybe I just need to take a vacation.   Oh, I had a little more than a week off in May but really that was it in 2 years.  But right now, I can't afford to take a vacation lol. I can't afford the time off.  Isn't that a thing.  I'd love to have about 7 days off in a row, but I can't afford not to work.  Welcome to Mid Income USA.

Now I'm on a website for "the Best Places to Retire in 2017"  Malta looks good now too lol.
