Crushed with Calls

I got my third swim in this week this morning. I swam five-hundred-and-fifty yards. That is a eleven laps total in about twenty minutes. So I had a fair amount of rest through out my time swimming.

Today at the fire department my plan was to work on my reserve academy studying and case law reports after five o’clock. During the day we did some hydrants and got one inspection review completed. We also had the day interupted by some calls. But it wasn’t until later when we would be running hard.

I started to work on my reserve work when it was five o’clock. But then I was getting interrupted by calls and dinner. I needed to go through three cases as well as cover all my notes. Due to how bad some people did on the test, they were re-administering it to everyone. So those of us who did well need to do even better. We also had three cases to do.

That was taking me hours to read through the case and work on the write up. That is partly due to the calls we were getting. The first one came out at eight o’clock PM. Then it just rolled. We were getting back to the station and then getting called out again. It took place like that all night long.

The only sleep I got was from three-thirty until six in the morning. We ran a total of thirteen calls on the day. I also had to stay up a little bit trying to study. I knew that I would be hating life tomorrow due to my lack of sleep tonight.
