PSD (Painful Swollen Deformity)

Went to bed last night around 02:00 hours and was rocked out of bed this morning around 07:30 hours for an accident with injuries in Upper Paxtown Township. I got out of bed, went to the bathroom and then got dressed and got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got there and pulled in behind Carol. We both got in 13-1 and off we went. We got up there and there was 3 patients. MICU 6-3 had an ALS patient and ended up flying them out with the landing zone being at Station 29 and Stat Med-Evac flying the person out. MICU 6-8 had the other ALS patient and took them to Hershey and we had a BLS patient that we took to Hershey also. After we got what we needed down at Hershey, we headed on home. We stopped at Sheetz and both me and Carol got something for breakfast. We then stopped at Shell and got disiel and then headed back to the shed. Once there I logged my time in and then watched my TV show while I ate breakfast. After that I sent the list down to Lewis at Keystone, updated the closet inventory and called Tom Troutman to see if the new unit was on our insurance yet or not. After that I did my tripsheet from the accident and then I did the minutes for both meetings. After that me and Bill talked for a little bit and then we both headed on home. Once at home I read the paper and talked to my mother for a little bit. After that I got on the PS2 and played Burnout 3. I ate dinner while I played on the PS2. Then around 19:59 hours the pager went off for seizures in Millersburg Borough. I got in my car and headed to the shed. I got there and pulled in behind Bill and Scott. Carol had already pulled 13-1 out for us and we all got in it and took off. We got up there and after talking to her and placing medic 6 in service took her down to Hrrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on home. Once back at the shed, I logged my time in and then me, Bill, Scott, Dohn and Carol talked for a while. After that I headed on home. Once at home I got online to do check my email and surf the net. Then around 23:45 hours the pager went off for a CVA in Halifax Township. I got in my car and headed in to the shed. I got there and went inside and started 13-1 up and Scott pulled up and got in and off we went. We got there and medic 6 showed up and they got on and we took the guy down to Hershey. After we got what we needed down there, we headed on home. We dropped the medic off at her squad and then went back to the shed. Once there I logged my time in and then copied all my minutes from last year for both firemen's relief and regular association. While I was doing that a couple knocked on the front door. I went out and talked to them and they told me that they had broken down at the bridge by the park and wanted to know if they could use the restrooms and the phone, which I gladly said they could. I then let them stay inside to stay warm until there ride showed up. After there ride showed up I did my tripsheet for the call and then ran up to Sheetz and got a milkshake (very good, mmmm) and then headed on home. I am now getting ready to hit the sack and got to sleep.
