Primary Teachers Should Get Extra Sick Days

It seems like once a month I come down with the classic sore throat, runny nose and cough. Bless their hearts but my kids are GERM FACTORIES! Their sweet smiles and offers to go get the school nurse for me keep me going throughout the day. On the other hand, calling the nonviolent crisis intervention teacher into my classroom for a certain student's meltdown made me wish I had used up a precious sub day and kept the covers over my head.

Turns out it's all a wash so I stopped by Target on the way home to pick up some "survival" items. Hopefully this gets me through the night and tomorrow...thank goodness for early release Fridays!
