work nightmare

I just need to share with those that understand. I am in California, as you know the state has a couple of big fires burning. I am several hours from the fire nearest fire, but it is extremely smoky, the air quality is bad even for the healthy population.

I had a dream that the health office was full of kids with varying degrees of respiratory distress, some students had inhalers, many did not. I was drowning in kids.

I woke up very nervous about coming into work today. Fortunately the whole district is on rainy day schedule so that means indoor lunch and recess. Thanks for letting me share.

Good thoughts to you and everyone out that way. Texas is sending you 200 firefighters. I imagine that even if recess/PE were inside every day, the most sensitive kids and adults would still be affected because the air quality is so poor that outside even for a few minutes makes it hard to breathe.

I'm positive the entire country is praying, in whatever manner of their personal belief, for a speedy end to such rampant destruction. Please be kind to yourself and remember you can only do what you can do...
