- About Me:
- I am currently taking a break from firefighting due to pregnancy! (yay) I am due April 23 and will try to be back active by mid June or whenever I feel capable of safely doing it again! I fought up until I was 4.5 months pregnant and realized it just wasn't worth the risk of myself, other firefighters and mostly my child!
However, not being able to fight fire is the toughest part of pregnancy for me.. I never had morning sickness or aches and pains~ I love it - Day Job:

The accident was a let down no doubt. I didn't make the call. Glad now that I didn't. Knew both victims. The people who made it seem to be doing alright.
So when is the big day? Must be close if your having the parties already.
Like yourself I haven't had much time to be on here lately. When the weather is nice I try to be outside as much as possible. Well we shall talk to you later, have a good one, bye bye.
