Long Nite

Dinner at the fire house last night began with a mixed green salad and then a 15-flight walk up some stairs in full gear at a building alarm call. The evening wound down at about 10:45 p.m. only to come to a sudden halt at 1:00 a.m. where upon we were sent to stand a "fire watch" from 2:00 a.m. until 6:00 a.m. this morning. We pulled some ceilings, axed up some floors, etc. to look for fire extension and to eliminate the possibility of a rekindle and then spent the next three hours sitting in the truck doing nothing.

I've been up pretty much all night.

YellowDog and I are going for a 2.5 mile walk and then we're going to do our very favorite thing: take a nap!

Nite.

You do wonderful work. Thank you for choosing to be a public servant. Your work is so important!! You & your fellow firefighters deserve to be recognized for the brave folks you are.

Sleep well. Hugs to you & YellowDog

Blessed be....
