Working on the Utility

Went to bed last night at 03:00 hours and got up this afternoon at 12:20 hours when my parents came home from the store. I got out of bed and got dressed and then ate lunch while I read the paper. I then got on the computer to do a few things. I then ate dinner while I was on the computer. Today was a very quiet day with no calls. I left the house at 18:20 hours and headed up to the fire house to work on the Utility. I got up there and started getting things ready when Jason pulled in. I had him go over the compartments with me and tell me what everything is. He did very well. We then started pulling stuff out of the back to clean. We pulled the spanner wrenchs, generator, cones, air packs and spare cylinders, the tarps and spill pads, the indian rake handles, spades, and pitch forks out and cleaned all of them up and put everything back. I had turned the compartment lights on in the Utility, but left the Utility plugged in to keep it charging. Well either we killed the batteris or drained them, but I noticed that the lights were starting to dim and when I went to start it, it would not start. So we put the battery charger on the Utility and let it charge for 20 minutes. We tried to start it again, with no luck. So we put it back on, and with it on tried to start it again and this time it started. We left it run for about 30 minutes to charge the batteries up. We then shut it off and when I went to start it again, no go. So we plugged it back in and I called Bubba to let him know and he said he would look at it when he gets home. Also during our breaks, I taught Jason the knots he needed to know for his BVR class. Once again, after some pratice he got the knots down. I then had him tie them with extrication gloves on and he did a great job also. I then headed on home and once at home I took a shower and 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 me a buzz.
