And life says... surprise!

I cant even begin to explain or describe how freakin happy I am. Finally getting a few minutes to update this thing. So much has happened the past week so sit back, this may be a long one.

John flew in this past Saturday to stay for a week. It was the fastest 6 days of my life and I didnt want him to leave. Of course spent the couple of days before cleaning up the house. We spent the week driving around all over GA. Went over to Stone Mountain one day and climbed it. Was gonna take the gondola up but it was broke down so we just walked it. It was a nice climb. Just sucked that when we got to the top, these was a drinking water ban/advisory so we couldnt get any water. But the view was beautiful and we had a great time just being together. Stayed later on into the evening for the laser light/fireworks show and it was wonderful being out there with him.

One of the days we decided to drive down to Fort Benning so he could show me the base and were hoping to watch a few training jumps into Fryer Field. Fort Benning is about an hour and half drive or so south of us... we get all the way down there and since noodle-head here has expired tags on her truck they wouldnt let us on base. We did get to see 5 jumps though from the road that runs along side the base. Took him over to Kennesaw Mountain on our way back and we climbed that too. Almost the same distance as the climb on Stone Mtn but a little steeper... and in the middle of a lightning storm. But we both love storms and I'm sure standing on the top during a lightning storm surrounded by a metal fence wasnt the smartest.. but oh well.

We talked a lot about him and the boys moving down here and all that that would entail. We've started looking at possibilities and I cant even begin to describe how ecstatic I am about it!!! We will just leave it at that for now. John rode with me on one of the days that he was here and wouldnt you know it... we didnt do a darn thing. Ended up being on the box which was fine, but didnt transport a single patient til 8pm and after that we didnt even have a call. I dont know how much he believed that we do normally run a lot of calls. LOL

Now.... last shift... THATS a whole other story. Thursday after I took John to the airport I got into the station about 12N. We grabbed some lunch and then caught a structure fire in our immediate. I was a happy girl since I was on the engine for the day. First in on a fire in a kitchen of an unoccupied rental property. Was out and overhauled with about 200 gallons.

One our way back we get dispatched for an infant in full arrest with CPR instruction being given over the phone. Still all dirty from the fire we go heading in and the baby is breathing and alert. 3 month premie on O2. Not much for us to do so we leave the rescue crew and head home. About an hour later catch another structure fire with flames showing. 2nd in on that one to E-7. Cap and I were doing primary search... I so thought of Darin... but the house had small bedrooms and we were bumping into the crew already inside... once done we just waited for E-3 to finish overhauling and clearing the attic We were there a lot longer, but got everything cleaned up and put away. Was looking forward to that shower.

Did a couple of butt-ache calls in the middle of the night but other than that it was a good shift. I miss John already and cant wait for him to come back. Hopefully in a few weeks I will get to see the boys. I'm sure it will be another fast but wonderful week. I am the happiest girl right now... I am truly amazed how God has blessed me.. and so very very thankful. I am at the threshold of having an awesome job that I've worked my butt off for, an awesome man who loves me and him alone is worthy of a blog entry, 2 great kids and life that I have only dreamed about. I only wish everyone could be this happy. If I could bottle this stuff, I'd give it away.
