    Can anyone from Texas answer this one?

    I've been searching the web and can't find an answer to this question, and the school won't give me one. Back when I was in high school there was an ambulance at every football game. However our local high school no longer has one at the game. They have a First Responder fire truck staffed...

    Where Were You....

    It was my hubby's first day of vacation so we decided to let him sleep late and wait until he woke up to have breakfast. We had just started Joshua's home-school lessons for the day, and Mike's hand was on the front doorknob, as he was going to pick up some chocolate donuts, when the morning...

    Is it really all that fun??

    I was a den mother one year for my son's cub scout group. It was actually great fun. They only had one camp out and it was for the scout and his entire family, so that we weren't responsible for trying to watch every child constantly. I just laid aside an hour each day to prepare for that...

    EMT-I School Here I Come!

    I'm afraid I may need more than luck on this one. Maybe it's just nerves with the beginning of class approaching, but I'm getting a little scared. Work, school, husband, son, homeowrk....where does sleep fit into this picture? I think I'll need some No-Doze for the next few months. And maybe...

    Do you even bother?

    My grandmother tried pulling the same song and dance with me. I simply told her if she couldn't support my decision that was fine. She didn't have to, but if that was the case we could either avoid the subject or I could avoid her. She chose to drop the issue and keep me around. It was...

    Hiccups

    I haven't had the hiccups in years, but my son gets them a lot and I found one thing that ALWAYS stops them. I just make him stand in the room in front of me and anyone else around and demand that he hiccups for us. All that ever happens is he blushes and laughs a little before walking away...

    Dream

    As a child I studied classical guitar as well as a few other instruments, but my dream was to play the fiddle. Never happened as a child, so I'm trying to learn now.

    Class starting, need a list.

    My advice is definitely don't over do it. We were supplied everything we needed for clincals except our uniforms. For class we needed something to take notes on, a binder for handouts, pens for writing (ink only!), and a highlighter for marking important sections of the text. Unless your...

    how to get experience

    Thought I'd share some good news. A small local EMS services has agreed to put me on as a volunteer (with 90 day orientation period) until they can provide me with a paid position. It will only be part time to begin with, but it's a start. And they plan to help me get funding for medic school...
