I see the light at the end of the tunnel!

Everyone I have talked to that is an EMT, say that becoming an EMT is very difficult and very overwhelming. Well I can proudly say that I have one week left of class, and I am very confident that I will have no problem passing the final. Then on June 6th I have my National Registry test, and again I feel very confident with what I will be getting tested on. So the end is near!!

Our new hobby

Normally when we go to the store we make a list and then get only what is on the list. Well yesterday we kinda broke the rules a little bit, actually a lot! We have been trying to find something that we can do together and gets us outside. So our new hobby is Golfing! Some of our friends now call us the old couple, because we like to watch the news, read the news paper and now we are going to be golfing. So here are some pictures of what we came home with yesterday. The funny thing is, we went to the store to get draino, toothpaste and soda. What a combination ! :-) (My golf clubs are still at the store, we figured just get one set at a time)

Here is Jordy with his new golf clubs. That is the only thing he carried into the house, because he had to open them and get outside to see how well he liked them!

Any tips?

I love the pictures that I got to post this morning but I am a rookie at Windows Writer. I guess I'm not sure how to use it yet. If anyone has any tips for me to help me let me know. Thanks!!!

Some Random Pictures of Jordy and I

I was blogging and I realized that I didn’t want to look at the snow pictures on my blog anymore, so here are some pictures of Jordy and I, because I don’t really have any pictures of us on here! The picture on the far right is my Favorite picture of us!

Something funny that I just noticed is that Jordy is wearing the same dress shirt in three of the pictures! Good thing we bought him two new ones! :-)

What Time of Year is it?

I went to sleep last night knowing that it was snowing outside, but it wasn't sticking to the ground, at that point it was more like rain. Now at this time of year I can deal with rain, but snow not so much. It is Spring we are supposed to be getting lots of rain. And all of this cold weather and snow is pushing the date back for me to plant my very own garden. Of course I have no idea what I am doing, but how hard can it be? Hopefully this is the last time I have to wake up to snow this year. I am ready for weather in the 70's and sunny! I think I might just go find Julie and Brian in Florida if all of this snow keeps up!

New Neighbors!

I am very excited that we have a new neighbors! It is actually a very good friend of ours, his name is Justin. The reason I say neighbors is because he has a dog named Charlie, he is so cute and very energetic! We are planning on sharing the garage with him so we are hoping that we can take down what is supposed to be a wall, but is more like 2X4's and chicken wire. In the picture below is Jordy, Justin and our other friend Chris. Here is a good question, how many men does it take to hook up the trailer to the truck? I am just kidding! Sorry I haven't been blogging very much, I just don't have that exciting of a life, basically I work, go to school and sleep. So hopefully this summer will be a little different!

OH NO!!!!

So as I have told you in the past I am in the EMT course in Medford. Well this was my first call....Just Kidding! It was a fake call for practice, on this call we learned how to strap a patient to the backboard. So obviously nothing really happend I thought the title "OH No" would make it interesting! ;-) I am getting closer to becoming an actual EMT, I can't wait to be able to go out and help the community and I hate to say it but friends and family that may be in need. (I don't mean that in a bad way, I just don't want to see them hurt.)

The person in the picture is not me, it is a very good friend of mine that is also in the class with me.

Here she is being a good sport about it, even though she is uncomfortable! And let me tell you from experience they are horribly uncomfortable! But lifesaving!

This last week I got my Training Permit in the mail. That means that I can start going on ride alongs with the EMT crews. This also means I can start doing my clinicals in the ER Department. So who knows if you call 911 maybe I will be one to come and help.
