And so it begins...

Published

Two weeks left of school. I think there is a class gone for a field trip every day. Not to mention the short trips to local businesses, award assemblies, fun days, presentations, track and field days, ect. I will get nothing done but tracking down students for their meds and/or packaging them up to send along. :banghead:

I definitely just sent my boss an email asking her if she had a form like the "athletic supporters" use.

Yep...

Yep.

Had to send a follow up "athletic TRAINER" email.

I'm fallin' apart here.

Sully, you're killing me.:cheeky:

16 more days of ever-failing attitudes here. Mine may be slipping the fastest. Teachers are sending anything & everything to me.

Monday a 2nd grade teacher was standing 5 feet away with her class after lunch & could clearly see me trying to choke down my cold Lean Cuisine & sent me a little boy who said, "my teacher wants you to do something about my nose." Said nose was full of dried boogers and scabs. He admitted to over-picking. Ahh, lunch in the clinic.

Yesterday, a 3rd grader shows up & say, "you need to clean my glasses." What the?? First, how is this a nursing task and, second, when did the word please fall from the English language?

Today I've been listening to a K5 teacher gripe about not getting her break. Break?? They get a break AND lunch? I think I'll take a break and go lie down in the carline path.

Oh, and then I banned my own kid from anything that plugs in, charges or has a remote. So, there's that.
