We aren't the ones to write up our aides. That was the problem, the teachers can't reprimand the aides.  I do need to stand up for myself though. If I am ever stuck with her or anyone like her, I will record them or immediately go to my superior, regardless of their relationship. I am not great about confrontation, but I can't do another year like that. I became so depressed/anxious that I have to take meds daily to calm down.  Looking back, I should have taken pictures of all the shit she did. Sitting at the computer for over an hour, eating the kids' food, walking out of the classroom and leaving me alone with 6 kids while trying to do individual teaching with one, sitting instead of walking around during recess, doing her makeup every morning instead of toileting the kids, etc..... She was just a terrible person.
