[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look within 1-2 hours locally for the same job. No way would I do that big of a move for 20K. Not even 30K.

How would you plan your big wedding from Colorado? That means you wouldn't even be getting married for at least 3 years, assuming you come back after 2.

Nursing is a great career for moms. Know what is even better? Take the next 1.5 years and get your Nurse Practitioner. Or do that after you get married. My step-daughter did that while working 1-2 12hour shifts per week.

Then she did her DNP (online at UF) and now oversees 1200 NPs & PAs and just entered her 40's.

She has 3 kids and plenty of hands on time.

You can have a high powered nursing career right where you are with a partner you love and are already planning to marry. Travel nursing is a great way to ease into retirement.

I don’t want to go back to school or get my DNP. I want to work my way up and that’s it. [/quote]

Ok, so you don't really want to excel in a nursing career by getting your NP (which nowadays is really the minimum a serious nurse should strive for) or a DNP. But you want to fly away across the country for 20K, when getting your NP could literally double your salary upon graduation in 18 months. A NP is the easiest way you work your way up. Having a RN or BSN, plus some experience in Colorado? Big deal?

GIRRRRLLLLLL.... If you are so career oriented that you are willing to leave BF for 2 years, for goodness sakes, get your damn NP locally and be making the same $$$ 2 years from now that you think this travel nursing assignment is somehow going to give you.

You work your way up in nursing by going from RN to BSN to NP to DNP. Either you are nursing career oriented or you are not. Sorry, you really sound like you are not that serious of a career minded nurse. Just chasing after travel nursing dollars.

Good luck to you and to your BF.
