Good Day at Wal-Mart
I went to bed last night around 03:05 hours after watching the USA Men's Indoor Volleyball Team beat Russia to advance to the Gold Medal Game. I woke up this morning around 11:00 hours. I got out of bed and ate lunch while I read the paper. I then changed into street clothes and headed up to the fire house around 12:20 hours. I got up there and parked and went into the station and opened the Engine bay door. I then took a look around for the tickets and could not find them. So I left a message on Troy's cell phone. Bill then got there and I told him about the tickets. I then gave Bubba a call, but it went to his voice mail. I then called Robin and asked her if she knew about what time Troy got out of work and she said she thought around 14:30 hours. I told her what was going on and then thanked her and hung up. Bill then said that he had some tickets of his own, and I pulled mine out of my car and gave them to him. I then put the station gas can in the back of the Utility and my gear in the front of the Utility. I then put the signs in the back of the Utility. The station phone then rang and it was Bubba. I told him what I had told Robin, and he told me to check the copy of Troy's CPR card in the drawn of the desk to see if it was signed or not. I checked and it was, so Bubba said that Troy stopped this morning. I told Bubba the only place I could think they would be, would be the filing cabinet, but I didn't have a key to it. He told me to come down to the house and he would give me his key. Meanwhile, Bill grabbed 6 chairs and a table out of the hall and put them in the back of his truck. I then pulled the Engine out and then the Utility and went over and hooked the trailer up and then moved it over by the fire station and loaded the Utility on the trailer and we strapped it down and then I put the Engine away and we left there around 13:35 hours and haded up to Wal-Mart. We got up there and got things set up and House and Michelle were already there. Things were slow in the beginning and then it picked up around 18:00 hours. Around 17:10 hours I headed down to Burger King and got something to eat for dinner. Jess showed up around 17:45 hours and then Tonita came in, followed by Eric and his gf. We tore down around 20:00 hours. We had sold 29 four wheeler tickets and 9 Daily Number Tickets. I left Wal-Mart and then stopped at Shell and got fuel and gas and then headed back to the station. I got there and Bill was there, along with Eric and his gf. I parked in front of the Tanker bay door and then opened the Engine bay door and pulled the Engine out and put the four wheeler away. I then moved the Utility over and we locked the trailer around the telephone pole and then I put the Utility away. Jess then brought her friend and co-worker that she brought along with her up to Wal-Mart who is from Liverpool Fire Company, up to our station and showed him around. I then put the fire safety stuff in the cabinet and then put my gear away and then closed everything up and headed home around 21:08 hours. Once at home I took a shower and am soon going to bed as I have to get up early tomorrow morning.
