Restarting college at 32 and trying not to make the same mistakes I made the first time

So back in my early 20s I started college, knocked out maybe a year's worth of gen ed classes, and then dropped out. Honestly I just didn't have direction at the time and I needed to work. Bills don't wait, you know
Fast forward to now. I'm a retail supervisor, stable income, but I don't see a real future in it. I've decided I want to go into nursing. Long road I know. But I figure if I'm going to do this, I need a real plan this time and not just jump into something expensive and hope for the best
Right now I'm trying to figure out if my old credits are even still usable and whether SNHU is the smartest first step before I commit to anything. Anyone here restart after a long gap? What did you wish you knew before you re-enrolled?
