Rain

A nice leisurely 24 shift on a Sunday. I like Sundays. There's the weekly checklist of all the squads and we take our time in the mornings.. everyone manuvering gingerly with their checklist on a clipboard in one hand, a cup of coffee in the other. My partner and I criss-cross 3 counties to hit all the other stations to pick up the weekly time sheets and outstanding run reports. We dont get a run til 12:30pm. Considering I played my butt off last night at our hockey game, I'm not to disappointed that we dont get out first run til 12:30pm.

It's dreary and cold and I wish it would just snow already. No such luck. It rains. And rains. And rains some more. We have an evening transfer into hospice for a sweet old woman who has no complaints, nothing hurts, but yet her family says they cant care for her anymore. We wrap her up like Mother Theresa to keep her as dry and warm as possible. Down a set of steep stairs on a hill that is her front yard.. we lift and carry her like the Egyptians did royalty. Its the least we can do.

I got to watch my show Grey's Anatomy without interruption. Sweet. Hoping to pick up some more shifts throughout the week. I'm poor. But who isn't these days. Gotta make it to the gym tomorrow. Have a week before another game and have some pent up energy.
