Today I was only scheduled to work this morning. Honestly, I was looking forward to having some extra time to get some things done around the house. When I got to school though, they were short two subs so I agreed to stay and spend the afternoon in art class. However, both the music teacher I was subbing for this morning and the art teacher for the afternoon had 1st period plan, so I was sent to Phys Ed just for that class. I was sitting there thinking how grateful I am that it was only for the one class period, when all of a sudden there is a commotion and a student is coming across the gym with blood all over his face. In jumping for a football, he tripped over some mats on the floor, and collided with another student. His managed to go head first into the door, and his face fell into a lock with his nose striking a handle. Oh goodness! Two other students escorted him to the nurse, and I was relieved to hear that it doesn't sound as though stitches are required.
The ironic thing is that I had been asked to attend a training yesterday for first aid, and specifically bleeding. I had to do band things so I couldn't, but of course several people joked with me about it. It was not at all how I had planned to begin my day...and it's why I don't want to be a sub in Phys Ed!
