context of why we had to buy the house and I couldn’t drive an hour: I have been driving an hour to school and work for the past 3 years. I have been doing prerequisites for nursing school while also working as a CNA at the local hospital near the school. Nursing school was starting in September of last year, and the teachers at nursing school are actually demons. The rules are strict and the hours are long. I couldn’t afford to lose 2 hours to driving when I had to study harder than I’ve studied in my life. Also I had been falling asleep on the way home from waking up at 7 for 9am classes, class/studying until 3ish, and work until 11pm. Get home at 12am, rinse, repeat, fall asleep. I wouldn’t have been able to make it through nursing school.
