...as we head into one of the hardest weeks of the year... The last few days before Winter Break.

When Junior High kids turn into 5 year olds...

When 3rd graders are dealing with their waivering belief in a mystical being bringing toys throughout the world...

When High Schoolers are stressing over finals...

When Teachers have had more than enough and are letting students come to the health office for any minor and/or imagined thing...

When everyone who hands out gifts to school personnel forgets that the nurse exists...

May the spirit of the season stay strong!! Just a few days left and then a couple weeks off (what I feel confident saying is one of the biggest perks of this job!!)

Love you all and our own little corner of AN!!

Unlimited coffee bar for teachers and staff. Until noon.

"Our espresso shots are 3x stronger than starbucks!"

I've put a sign on my door that says "no palpitation visits by teachers/staff today. Drink some water and go for a walk!"

We have that on Wednesday! But not until noon...maybe 7-10ish. Can't wait!
