wish to have a better year

Ok, this is my first time writing a blog here... I would like to write this just to keep my journal for the end of the special year, 2007.

2007 was the most devastating year to me in my life. When I joined this website, I was married, but about two months later, I became widowed suddenly. Since then I have been struggling with my life, it has been a little over three months, but I feel like I lef myself as well at the time when he went home, and I still have not figured out who…

YOU KNOW YOUR A FIREFIGHTER WHEN...


	1. You can tell what type of fire it is by the smell of smoke 10 miles away. 2. You have ever had a heated debate over the color of fire trucks. 3. You have ever spent 10 min trying to force open a door only to have someone come along and open it by turning the handle. 4. You have ever taken 10 or more showers in 1 day. 5. You have ever been airborne without an aircraft and water was…

New Year

As we approach 2008, let us be thankful for the important things in 2007. With good comes bad as we all know. Let us be thankful for our families that miss and worry for us every third day. For the great job that we get to do. And the brotherhood that we control the destiny of. Let us welcome the new year with realistic resolutions like "EVERYONE GOES HOME". Make it happen and be true to keeping brothers safe. It all starts with the span of control, right? Usually we have a couple guys…

Happy New Year!!

Hope everyone is having a great New Years Eve!! I've been suffering from lack of laptop as my hard drive crashed and burned (why, no I had not backed anything up in ages)

So, I've been puttering along and borrowing the better half's computer.

At any rate, I wish everyone a happy, safe, and prosperous New Year!!

Stay safe

Firefighter Gifts: The Bond of Brotherhood

Becoming a firefighter is not just about the Fire Academy Firefighter I program. It's more than just the countless hours of training, demanding physical labor and sleepless nights. It is about the flames, destruction and unknown. And it is about going through it with the guys on your line. The firefighters who hang their accountability tag next to yours, no questions asked except for "Ready?".

This bond is like a secret. Not because we won't tell you, but because we…

Dating

I was just wondering what everyone thought of dating someone in the same field as you. Do you think it would work out if you date someone who is a firefighter and first responder. My feelings I think it would work out, because you know what ur girlfriend or boyfriend is going through. Just leave a message and let me know what you think.

Thanks

The Draft

Before I give my views on the draft I need to let you know my background. I joined the army 8 days after my 18th birthday. It was during the Iranian hostage crisis, Carter was the president, the cold war was very chilly. I spent most of my 12 years wearing the uniform in the Texas Army National Guard. I love the army, I have the utmost respect for all of the men and women who wear the uniform today. It is an all volunteer force and all of the people in the armed services today have enlisted…
