Had a kid bring his wet, bloody tooth and plop it right on my desk.

C'mon now!

Or the kid that did running knee slide into my office.

C'mon now!

The ones old enough to cover their mouths but choose to cough right in your face instead.

All together: C'mon now!!

Some things just make me shake my head.

Ohmigawd, I think we have enough school nurse sayings that we can have a shirt for each day of the week. Remember to make Wednesday's shirt pink, biotch.

Just spent the last hour getting things ready for a field trip that I found out about as I walked in the door.

Then I give the bag to the teacher, which includes epi-pens, inhalers, KLONOPIN, and she says,

"Can I leave this on the bus or do I have to take it into the play with me, its really big."

I stare at her and blink a few times, shocked that she actually asked me that.

Umm, no. This bag, which has EMERGENCY MEDICATIONS and a controlled substance, CANNOT STAY ON THE BUS!

Seriously...C'mon now!

(Two teachers in every grade are trained in medication administration, eliminating my need to go unless there is a diabetic kiddo.)

Why in the heck are you up if you're out of school? (I'm assuming you are in the same time zone as I am, and that you are lazy like me and sleep in til 10)

Our school district chose to take the "snow day" that never happened this year and take today off. Next week is Easter Break.

Spidey is happy to get a snow day when the sun is shining and the grass is greening up.

I think it is crazy to train teachers to give meds . . . proof is the question about leaving the "really big" bag on the bus.

:no:

If mom didn't go with our diabetic kiddo, I went on the field trip.

Right!? I mean really, I wonder how some of these well educated people made it through school.

ETA: I would much rather go on the field trips. Teachers usually forget to give the scheduled meds, but tis the way the cookie crumbles 'round heah'.

I have a handful of kids that come up EVERY. DAY. because "I feel fine, but my teacher says I feel warm." And of course, they never are.

Stop putting your hands on these kids. Oh my lanta, I just want to spit sometimes.
