N is for nurse

There’s a number that pops up from time to time on my cell phone and it looks vaguely familiar but I don’t pick up because I don’t quite recognize who it is.   The calls usually come mid-morning while I am at the gym or running errands. It looks familiar because it is the school nurse calling.. again.  She leaves a message and when I get it I call back in a panic.  My son has become a regular in her office.  At first I thought the complaints such as headache or upset stomach stemmed from being at a new school, but now I think that if I had a nurse at my disposal every day I’d be there too!  Just for a little tlc and reassurance or maybe just to lay my head down with a cool rag for a bit of a rest.   If I could go today, I’d have her take a look at the “boo boo” on my forehead that my girls keep pointing out to me.  You know, just to make sure it isn’t a staph infection or the flesh eating bacteria.  I guess I may be over the hill but my skin is still young at heart!  When the calls come I don’t panic anymore because I now have the number programmed into my phone: N for Nurse.
