Kelly,
Congratulations on this big step! If I remember correctly, you are very good at what you do--caring for very ill and dying people, yes?
As for what to tell people--are you going back to the same place?
Either way, just tell them what you feel is easiest for you to tell them, if you even have to say anything at all. It isn't really anyone's business unless you want to tell them. But as a mom of young kids, you certainly can rely on that as your back up reason.
I can understand being somewhat itchy to get out of the house and have more stimulation. For me, if I didn't work, my depression would be a lot worse--I know from weekends and time off when I'm home, I get more depressed--I know it's different for different people, but I can relate to how hard it would be without people to talk to all day.
Good luck!!!
