Hi all,

Long time lurker first time poster here.

Today is my 30th birthday. And to make a long story short, there is a lot going on in my life at the moment. In the very near future, my husband and I will be selling our current house and relocating to TN (where we're from). I will not have a job in TN and since we aren't 100% certain on what city we'll be living in yet, that's made looking for employment a bit difficult. I have always wanted to be a nurse since I was a little girl. I've worked as a CNA in the past and always felt needed and important in that role.

My question(?) of sorts is this: am I too old to start nursing school when I'm 30/31ish? My husband has always been a supporter of me sinking my teeth into a field/career that I enjoy and will provide for me and he is fully supportive of me doing this once we're more established in TN.

I guess I'm just questioning myself and the feeling that I'll be the oldest person in class and all the doubt that comes with that.

Thank you all for reading and any advice you give.
