I came down here believing there was little to do in order to start work on August 11th. I called my supervisor to get things straight and she informed me that there's no way I can start work on the 11th, and at best it would be the 25th, but more likely on Sept 8th!
This means no money until late September, and there's no way I can survive that long. This means going back to WI to work at my old job until I can start here.
But there's a problem. The place I worked for has a low census problem, meaning there's no work for me unless the numbers increase. Too many people getting well and going home at once, and not enough people getting sick or injured to fill in the gaps!
I need you all to pray for me to get the paperwork I need filled out so there are no delays in getting my license transferred, and I need to work no less than 30 hours a week for three weeks.
My children have to stay here since they are starting school in two weeks. My sister will check on them everyday and make sure they have what they need, but I have no choice but to leave them here. They will be fine as long as they have food and cable TV!
I have always believed God was in this move and have had no problems (except one) up until now. The devil is fighting me and he needs to lay off cause I'm in no mood!
Thanks, everyone. I will keep you undated when I find things out.

Try finding one of those visiting nurse agencies. Maybe they can set you up with enough temporary work to keep you busy until you can start your regular job. We have one of those agencies right here in town.
Yikes! Stressful situation. I will be praying but I also agree that you should see if you could get work at your new location through a temp agency.
Every place I have lived desperately needs nurses and utilizes nurses from these agencies a lot.

how far are you from the STL Metro area? They are always begging for nurses around here.....maybe you could try an agency or something? You could stay with me if you needed to...you wouldnt have to commute all the way home.
I'm sure you could find something around here pretty quick....
i agree she could find work no doubt, but the licensing is the issue for her new job so probalby for temp work too, lol
totally forgot about that...I had a friend that moved from Washington state and her employer let her start knowing her license was being changed to IL.....or whatever they do....someone desperate enough might hire her!!
But God has a better way of working it out better than we can...

True. That part didn't register in my brain. She can still, however, try to find temporary work through Manpower, Kelly Services, or other temp agencies in her area.
I wonder if she could get a job "sitting" with elderly people in the interim if licensing is the problem?
I know there are some agencies that specialize in that and some situations do not require a nursing license.
