The voices help me....

Don't get lost yet.  I know the title prbably threw you off.  I actually do alot of thinking.  Sometimes as I lay my head onto my pillow in the evening to sleep my mind runs full speed with ideas for blogs and things I should discuss, then I fall asleep and forget them.  The voices are like story tellers.  They are the guide to how I write, and things sound better in my head than they do in actual text sometime.  I stand in the shower washing my body after I wake, and ideas roll through my head like a ball rolling down a hill.  They flood me with ideas, and excitement for the potential increase in readers.  I just wish I would actually record or take notes on what I am thinking when I think it. 

The last few weeks have been relatively nice.  The weather is nice and warm, and things haven't been too awful bad.  I have had a couple annoyances with a few repeat offenders.  These folks seem to call about the same thing over and over.  I took a call a couple days ago as the caller was closing their windows they heard what they thought was a neighbor say, I can see you.  This caller is a constant caller.  Calling about numerous complaints ranging from stray dogs and people banging on their residence to being set up to go to a mental hospital.  

Another call from a subject who lives in government housing and is constantly complaining about the people who live up stairs walking across their floor.  Its an apartment thing, but why complain, its a known issue with sharing a residence.  I think some of it is an attention thing for this caller.

Days back

I wrote this several days ago, maybe weeks, I am behind putting them up so there might be several days blasted with updates and blogs which are longer. When did I book the trip on this insane train? I was enjoying some computer games when I heard some thunder . Shortly after that it began to rain, I mean POUR! I am hearing radio traffic like crazy, police, city crews, sheriff's department, Department of Transportation, WATER IS EVERYWHERE, and the highways are even impassable and are close to traffic. 1 hour later, I get a call from work, They need me in for a transfer of a critical patient, and we are taking a nurse. I tell them I will do my best to get there. My street has a few places where water is running over the road, I go a few blocks and then find more water. I have never seen this much water standing and moving, at least not here! There is a stress you have to deal with in this situation, you have to worry your vehicle will be carried by the water as you go through the wa...

The LZ

ATV's can be dangerous, as I have found out through a few calls. We are dispatched for an ATV accident, we go to the location, which is a few miles from the road. My partner takes off and goes down, while I get the truck turned around and try to get things setup for her. She calls back for me to radio for a helicopter. In just a few minutes she knew we needed a chopper. I called for a chopper telling dispatch to go ahead and dispatch a rescue crew to setup an LZ for us, since the fire department was already on scene with us assisting. The male was riding with a young girl on the back, they had went down into a creek, and then on the way out, the four wheeler front end lifted up, he was able to throw the younger girl off, but he wasn't able to clear himself from the path, as it fell backwards onto him. He was partially in the creek and underneath the large ATV. He was cold, and pale, he looked like he was dead, and his respirations were shallow, all the primary signs of...

Downward Spiral

The past month has started a rapid downward spiral, not totally on me.  I thought things were going good, we were almost to the point of being fully staffed, it was kind of exciting.  And then IT happened.  One of the rather new rookies had a bad day, I mean it was bad, but not terrible.  They fumbled, they struggled, but they made it out at the end of the day, as well as everyone they sent.  But they complained that it was a terrible day and they were not coming back.  The next day was a new day, they showed up.  They did the job they were paid to, the one they were hired for, and went on with the day like the day before had not been any issue.  Then it happened I was off and got a message to call in when I had a chance.  I called in and the supervisor informed me that the employee had quit and was no longer on the schedule so it would affect the entire schedule.  I was asked if I could take any other shifts, I reluctantly drudged thr...
