All Hell Broke Lose!!

I went to bed Thursday night around 03:30 hours and woke up at 07:10 hours when my alarm went off. I got out of bed and got dressed and then grabbed my suit case and camera and took them out to the kitchen. I then packed my lunch and grabbed my Gatorade bottles and put everything in my car. I then left the house around 07:30 hours and headed up to Lykens to go to work. I got up there and parked and went inside and put my lunch and Gatorade bottles in the fridge and then clocked in. I then did a rig check on 6-8 and as I was doing that, the tones went off for a call in Northumberland County. Jim took that call and ended up being cancelled. Steve then called and said about going to Special Place for breakfast. Me and Tim left and headed on down and we were the first ones there. We went inside and ordered awhile. The tones then went off for a call in Millersburg. Jim and Steve took that call in the squad. Stutzman and O'Neal then showed up and we ate breakfast. As we finished eating, Jim called Tim and told him that there was an ALS call in Jackson Township, Northumberland County. We got on the scene and Dalmatia was there and had the lady already loaded up. They ended up going down to Harrisburg Hospital. I headed back and stopped at Wal-Mart and got a new watch. I then ran down to the Eville station and picked up supplies to take back up to the Lykens Station. I then headed on down to Sheetz to pick up Tim. I got lunch at Sheetz and ate it while waiting for them to get back. They got back and then we headed back up through. We stopped at Eville so Tim could pick up his boots and then we headed back up to Lykens. We got back and I helped him restock his gear and then put the supplies away. The tones then went off for another call in Millersburg for breathing problems. Jim took that call. Kathy then showed up at 15:00 hours to go on for me due to me having a DCVFA meeting that night. We then sat down to watch an episode of Season 3 of Emergency. Around 15:45 hours the tones went off for an accident with injuries involving a horse and buggy. They left on that and 6-3 also went responding. It ended up being a buggy that had broke down along the side of the road and everyone was cancelled. 24 then got dispatched class 3 for diabetic problems in Williamstown Borough. The person wanted EMS to check their mother's blood sugar. 24 then told county to dispatch ALS and 6-5 headed up there. That ended up being a refusal. Then about 5 minutes after they went available, the tones went off for chest pains in Williamstown Borough. 6-5 went on that and then 24 and Tim headed on down to Harrisburg Hospital. While all of this was going on, I was sitting on the couch in Lykens watching TV. Then around 17:20 hours the tones went off for an accident with injuries in Wiconisco Township. 6-3 and Jim went responding on that and that also ended up being refusals. Kathy then came back while she waited for Tim to get back. My father then picked me up around 18:30 hours and we headed on up to Williamstown for the meeting tonight. The meeting went good and quite a few things were discussed. After the meeting was over we left and my father dropped me off at Lykens and then left. I went in and clocked back in and Kathy clocked out and then left. Me and Tim then sat down and finished watching the episode of Emergency that we were watching earlier and then watched another episode. Tim then left and headed on home around 23:45 hours and I got ready for bed. I then laid on the couch and watched TV and I know I feel asleep at one point. I remember waking up around 01:00 hours and turned the TV off and then went back to sleep. The tones then went off around 01:30 hours for breathing problems in Lykens Borough. I got up and got the sutff on my belt and got my boots on and then got in 6-5 and went responding. I picked Tim up at his place and then we went to the scene. We got this guy loaded and took him down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. I stopped at the Uni-Mart on Front street so Tim could get coffee and then we continued on back. While we were at Harrisburg, the tones went off for a fall victim in Gratz Borough. 6-3 handeled that and it was a public assist. We got back and I dropped Tim off at his house and then headed back to the station. I restocked his gear and then got ready to go back to sleep when the tones went off again for a CVA in Lykens Borough. I got everything back on my belt and got my boots back on and got back in 6-5 and went responding. I picked Tim up again and we went to the scene. We ended up calling for fire for a medical assist to get the lady out of the house. After we got her loaded, we headed on down to Harrisburg Hospital. After we got what we needed, we headed on back. Again I stopped at the Uni-Mart on Front Street so Tim could get another cup of coffee and then we continued on back. We got back around 07:45 hours and I helped Tim restock his gear. Jim was already there when we got back. John then showed up and I gave him my report, clocked out and headed on home. Once at home I changed into pj's and then went to bed to get some sleep. I woke up this afternoon around 12:30 hours. I got out of bed and changed into street clothes and then ate lunch. I then headed up to the fire house. Katina was there and Troy and LeeAnn were out filling a pool. Me and Katina talked a little bit and then I went over to the old fire house and pulled out all the lights in the one cabinet and cleaned them up and took pictures of them so we can sell them. I then went up into the second floor and brought down all of the scrap from the second floor. I then came down and put that stuff away and then we sat around and shot the shit. Troy then got the mower out and started mowing the lawn. He then asked me if I could run home and bring the weed wacker up and I said not a problem. I ran home and my father put the blades on it and then I ran it back up. We had to do a few things on it and then LeeAnn started to use it. She then stopped and Schoffstall made some adjustments to it, but she got busy doing other things. I then decided to finish. I then left and headed on home and called Bubba about the lights. He then also said about putting the air packs on. So I turned around and got the ladder back out and went back up into the second floor and got some pictures and information on the packs and then headed on home. Once at home I took a shower and just finished eating dinner. 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 me a buzz.
