My UFO (unbelievably fabulous observations)

[hoosiermama]

ah, yes...now I remember why I haven't had a thread in awhile....

so--journaling.

We are now into the second week of school at the elementary where I am a school nurse. On Monday one of our PTA officers was arrested for stealing funds. Yesterday an angry mother (angry because I insisted she cannot send her children to school while they are infested with lice) took a swing at me--fortunately hitting the door next to me instead of my head. And one of our first-graders beat the tar out of his teacher in front of a horrified group of 6-year-olds. This morning I had to call the police for that same mother, who made a scene and refused to leave my clinic after being asked twice.

Welcome to inner-city public school nursing. I don't recall it being this bad last year, and I'm concerned that we're at this level this early in the year!
