Busy Day at 13
I went to bed last night at 04:06 hours and was rocked out of bed this morning around 06:45 hours when the pager went off for a call in Millersburg Borough. 20 got out right away and we were placed in service. I reset the pager and went back to sleep. I then was rocked out of bed again around 08:20 hours when the pager went off for an accident in Perry County. We were placed in service just as I had finished getting dressed. So I changed back into my pj's and went back to bed. I was rocked out of bed again around 09:45 hours when the pager went off for bleeding in Halifax Township at Community Medical Associates. I got out of bed and got dressed and then got in my car and headed into the "Barn". I got there and pulled in behind Dohn and I opened the door to 13-1. We got in and off we went. We got there and got the guy loaded up and Jim got on and we took him down to Holy Spirit Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. We dropped Jim off at his squad and then went back to the station. Once there I restocked the unit and then logged my time in and then headed on up to Sheetz and got gas and then stopped at Giant and picked up a gallon of Diet Iced Tea. I then headed on home. Once at home I ate lunch and read the paper. My mother then got home around 14:05 hours and I helped her bring some things in. We were sitting in the living room talking when around 14:20 hours the pager went off for a facial injury in Halifax Borough. I got my boots on and then got in my car and headed to Carol's house. I got there and parked and got in 13-1 and off we went. We got there and got the guy loaded up and took him down to Harrisburg Hospital. While we were heading down there, 29 was dispatched on a brush fire and we ended up getting hit to go on it also, so once again I missed another fire call. After we got what we needed down at Harrisburg, we headed on back. We got behind the Tanker and saw the Engine at Shell get fuel and I blew the siren. Once I got my car at Carol's house I headed back into the shed. Once there I logged my time in and started working on my tripsheet while I was talking to Bill. I was halfway through my narrative when the pager went off for a pshychatric problem in Jackson Township. I saved my chart and got in my car and headed back out to Carol's house. Once there I parked and got in 13-1 and off we went. We got there and got the guy loaded up into the "Taxi" and took him down to Holy Spirit Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. We stopped at Shell and got fuel and then headed back out to Carol' s house. Once there I picked up my car and headed back into the shed. They were having a Firemen's Relief Meeting in the office when I got there and I logged my time in and then finished my first chart and then put the second one in. I then talked to Sue and Amanda for a bit and then left and headed up to Shell. I picked up a half gallon of Guers Orange Drink and then headed over to Sheetz and picked up dinner and then headed on home. I stopped at the fire house to get the times and info from the call today so I could update the website. Bubba, Troy, Holly, and LeeAnn were there and the five of us got talking. I left around 21:45 hours and headed on home. Once at home I ate dinner and then took a shower and am soon going to bed as I am tired.
