Low Energy Day

I did not have a lot of energy today. I woke up late, as my alarm clocks, yes clocks, went off, and I still slept until I only had twenty minutes to get to work.

In short order we got started on the rig checks. I was working on the ambulance with Chia. Drew was covering for Blake on the engine. I just didn’t have a lot of energy to be moving as fast as I normally do. I didn’t get through as much as I would normally do. I also didn’t feel like going above and beyond. I just wanted to relax. Chia did compliment me on how well I did Engine on a previous shift. He said he is not finding anything wrong with it.

I was volunteered by Chia to do the PL weekly ladder test. I wouldn’t have done it, but Chia said that I probably wanted to and he asked Drew to wait until I am back. The captain asked what I needed to get done for the engineer status. I told him and sort of pointed out how this would be worthless for me to work on because now I only have one month left. But I did it anyway. Drew was great and walked me through everything like I had never done it before. It was nice for him to spend his time helping me.

We ran one call today. I took a nap in the afternoon. I also called my mom and Bill. I wanted to say happy fathers day to him. He has done a lot for me over the years and I felt that me not calling him up would be a bad thing. My mom mentioned that she had not heard from me in a while. I am very bad about calling and writing.
