I. Had. Been. Here. All. Of. 5. Minutes. My. ONLY. Day. Here. This. Week. Teacher comes in looking and acting like death warmed over.
Her: "YOU'RE A NURSE. DO YOU HAVE A STASH OF MEDICINE IN HERE????? YOU KNOW. SOMETHING TO GET ME THROUGH THIS PROGRAM??!! (end of year program is in a few hours)
Me: uhhhh...no. I don't have anything. The school doesn't have any stock medications.
Her: Well, I just can't stay out of the bathroom...pukin and poopin. I just thought maybe there was something stashed for adults.
Me: Mmmmm...nope...sorry. (good thing she couldn't read my thought bubble>>"do you REALLY think you need to be here??? ) C"MON NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

CAN.YOU.LET.ME.PUT.MY.PURSE.DOWN before you hit me with your stupidity???? Same teacher would probably pitch a fit if she found out one of her students was sent to school with those same symptoms.

And thought bubble, love it!! Problem is , lately my thoughts don't stay in their bubble but fall out instead......

The last two days have been C'mon now! days.

I have seen so many kids for ridiculous things...

I had a teacher come in after two of her little darlings hit their legs on a table. She said "Did you do an accident report on those kids?"

"Nope."

"Well, we need to."

I just looked at her and "Do we really need to do an accident report on that?" She said yes, so I handed her the papers. UGH!

Then a kiddo is brought in by his teacher saying he jammed his fingers. I ask which one and he says "I don't know." Then points to four of them, says "these", followed by "maybe it was this one" as he pointed at his index finger.

I let my internal eye roll slip out and said "You're fine, go back to class."

You're killin' me smalls!

My (oldish, like me) secretary just read me a quote- "I always mean what I say, sometimes I don't mean to say it out loud" ... yep it's Friday folks. AND...there are NO kids and very few adults in the building. They are all at the zoo, 2 1/2 hours away.

We have accomplished ALOT today! :sarcastic:

I get off those days. Mini golf in 2 weeks = date day for Mrs Nurse and me.

SPED going on field trip next week. Did not think it was important to inform me. Now, these people never go more than 12 minutes during the day without wanting or needing something. How the heck do they think they are going to function on a field trip with no input?? C'MON NOW!!!!!!

The kids always laugh because the first question I ask is "did you poo today". Next is "did you have a saltine" of course.

Our last day of school is Friday.

We bought pool passes.

We have a vacation booked for 3 days at Wisconsin Dells for nonstop water park fun.

I got the kids new bikes for Christmas.

My daughter fell out of a tree last night and snapped her left humerus into two pieces. We'll see an ortho on Monday to see if she needs surgery. C'mon now!!
