Kathy Killed 6-5
I left the house around 19:07 hours and headed on up to Lykens to go to work. I stopped at Tower Mini Mart and got something to munch on later that night and then headed over to the station. I parked and remembered that the station is used as a voting place and all the trucks were out. I took my stuff insidie and put my stuff in the fridge and then clocked in. I got on the computer to check a few things and then Bowser and Zach walked in. They had just gotten back from helping at the bus accident in Millersburg. Bowser started telling me about the call and then the tones went off around 19:45 hours for breathing problems in Lykens Borough at the Rattaling Creek Apartments. We got in 6-5 and headed on down there/ We got there and got the lady loaded up and Bowser was concered about a blood clot in the lung. So he had me start towards Hershey, class 2 and then he called down to medical command at Hershey and asked them about maybe flying her out and he agreed and the LZ was set up at Station 29. We got there and turned the lady over to the flight crew and then left and headed back up to Eville to restock. Once there, I checked the supplies and helped restocl 6-5. Bowser was uploading his chart when the tones went off for a call in Lykens Borough again. Tim and Bruce were already out on a call in Northumberland County. We went responding and it was a class 1 call. We got there and got the guy loaded up and took him up to Pottsville General. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. I stopped at the Sheetz outside of Pottsville and me and Bowser got something to eat and drink. We then headed on back to Lykens. Once there I placed a quick order and filled out my rig check sheet while Bowser restocked what he used. I then laid down on the couch and turned on Deadlest Catch to watch. I then munched on my snack while I watched the new episode. I then went to sleep at 02:00 hours. Around 07:00 hours the tones went off for a call at 149 Dusty Trail Road in Halifax Township. The Eville crew took that call and we went back to bed. I got up at 08:00 hours and got the stuff back on my belt and put my pillow away. Kathy then showed up and I told her everything that was wrong with 6-5, from the speedometer going crazy, to the ABS light coming on while we were going to Pottsville, to the possible alternator problem. I then told her all the dates and levels of the unit. I then clocked out and left and headed on home. Once at home I changed into old street clothes and then ate breakfast while I read the paper. I then left the house at 10:00 hours and headed up to the fire house. Once there I opened up the old fire house and got stuff ready to put the first coat of white paint on the thermometer. I put the first coat on and let it dry. I went in the fire house and relaxed in the one chair. I then grabbed the little giant and set it up in the old fire house to see what was up on the second floor. I stuck my head up and saw something towards the front that I wanted to get a closer look at. I decided to wait until Katina got there to hold the ladder for me. I then put my second coat on and as I finished, Katina showed up. She then put a coat of red on the bulb of the thermometer. I then had her hold the ladder while I went up to the second floor to take a look up front. I found three boxes of old trophies, 4 of the old Scott SCBA's in the hard cases and 7 or 8 of the old hard plastic fire helmets. I brought one of them down with me and cleaned it up. I had put an order in with Pizza Delight for delivery before I went up and as I was cleaning the helmet, they showed up with my food. I then finsihed cleaning the helmet and hung it on a hanger in my stall for now until I can find a good place for it where it is out of the way. I then ate my lunch, chicken tenders and fries. I then called the guy from Univex and left him a voice mail. We then went down and took the tape off anf decided to let it dry before we started taping up around the letters and hash marks and thermometer for painting later on today. Troy and Kenny then showed up and helped with the taping. I then left at 17:00 hours and headed on home. Once at home I changed shirts and then ate the 4 slices of pizza I got from pizza delight for dinner. I then left at 17:40 hours and headed on up to Eville to go to the staff meeting. I was done there by 19:00 hours and left and headed on back down to the fire hall for bingo. Bingo went good and I left there around 22:00 hours and headed on home. Once at home I took a bath so I could soak my right ankle some and I am soon going to bed as I am tired.
