That was a good Thanksgiving. Plenty of good food, only one call (for what came in as a rubbish fire but turned out to be a smoldering homeless camp cook fire. It was tucked away in an out of the way spot that had us do a little hiking in full turnouts lol. Only used a shovel to smother it with some dirt and we saved the North Shore from certain conflagration lol)

Of our 3 shift cycle, that was call number 2 (the first was a missing hiker that we found waiting at their car at the trail head after they got seperated from the rest of their party and he was just chilling waiting for the rest to come out).

But alas time to leave the beautiful North Shore Sunset Beach station back to my regular suburban 6 call a day station where the best view is of the freeway lol

What happens when the kids flinch?
One is too young and the other is borderline but hasn't show enough initiative to listen, for me to allow her to handle weapons.

I only shoot compounds or my crossbow in the house when nobody else is home.

I wont shoot recurves in the house.

Unrelated: it’s weird when people say that I must be brave or something since I’m an EMT. Dude I’m just transport.

I also bought the IA MED FMP class. Twas a hell of a deal.
I've never used their stuff, so I am excited to look it over. If I do happen to get an interview at this hospitals flight team, it will at least be timely review. 2 months and the damn this is still being held with no word back. If not, my recerts are taken care of.

I don’t ever plan on flying. It’s just a goal I’ve had for a while. Time to knock it out. A couple of the guys I used to work with saw my Facebook post on it and signed up too. If nothing else, I’m now a social media influencer! :)

Darn. I bought it before the Black Friday deal, lol. Dang it. I paid the full amount for IA Med. I guess I'll get my FP-C sooner.

Honestly, part of the goal of flying is just a lack of EMS only opportunities. I love my good fire crews, they've already been a huge help tonight, I just don't want to do fire myself. But the hospital also has some damn good benefits, so there is that too. Particularly for going back to school and insurance.

Still a good goal though. I learned so much by getting exposed to that material.

The things I’m really weak on, like vents, labs...that’s the stuff I’m really interested in learning about.
