Hello to my only follower, haha!!!!  So...I'm back at the fire station, I left the PIO position to return to engine company life.  It was a necessary move so I could do shift trades in order to go up north to care for my Mom.  She is sick with bone cancer and will need the help of me and my brothers.
It's good to be back, but the real truth is, I could retire right now and just travel, or coach football in Europe, or surf in Central America, or............

The heaviness of life sometimes is too great to bear, or so it seems.
