Hose and Knots, Hose and Knots

Went to bed last night at 02:30 hours and got up this morning at 06:00 hours when my alarm went off. I got out of bed and got changed into street clothes. I then ran outside and got the paper. I then read the paper while I ate breakfast. I then left the house at 06:55 hours and headed up to the fire station. I got there and LeeAnn, Andy, Helen and Keiffer were already there. Once there, I put my books in the cab of the Utility. Troy then showed up at the fire station. We then loaded the new hose in the back of the Utility. And then I put my gear in the back of the Utility. We waited at the station until 07:32 hours for Lonny to show up and he ended up driving into Station 29 any ways. Andy, LeeAnn and Helen all went on the Engine and Keiffer went with me in the Utility. We stopped at McDonald's and we all got something to eat. We then stopped at Shell and got something to drink and then continued to Station 29. It was a long day. The first half of the day we did hose rolls. The service roll, donut roll, twin donut roll, a hi-rise roll and then we went over how to pack a horse shoe load, a acordian load, and then a foward and reverse lay. We then went over how to deploy a minuteman load one person and two person. We then watched how it was re packed. We then broke for lunch. We had pizza and some people ordered subs. It was also Sammy Pottiger and Bob Pottigers birhtdays today, so there were a few cakes there also. After lunch we went back out and moved Engine 29 outside and parked it in front of one of the bay doors and then Andy pulled our Engine over. We then went to work pulling cross lays off and re packing them. While we were doing that, the people that were not pulling cross lays were in the bay doing their knots. We pulled hose for close to 2 hours and then we switched. So I finished up doing knots. We had them pack the new hose in the cross lays. Class was over by 17:15 hours and we headed on back to the fire station. Once there, I unloaded my gear and then we moved the hose from the Utility to the hose rack. We all then headed on home. Once at home I took a nice long relaxing shower and then ate dinner while I played on the PS2. I then relaxed on the bed for about and hour and watched TV. I am now getting ready to hit the old email and surf the net. I will be on late tonight so if any sexy ladies want to talk to me, just give m a buzz.
