Report From Ladder Company 40 -Day 45

Hi Team!

Woops! How did THAT happen???

It is nearly 11:00 @_@

This will be short because I have to go to bed.

Pete say's I walked 11,457 steps today. I drank my two quarts of water and I slept pretty well last night. I had a good day.

Jamie mentioned that the fire department might allow a civilian to attend their EMT classes for a fee to offset their costs and so I inquired of TFD today. I sent an email to Melinda Walter, the PIO. I have not heard back yet.

Thanks for all the encouragement from all of you. YOu ROCK!

Oh, and Coach Alex found me another theme song: Unbreakable, by Fireflight.

Lyrics:

Where are the people that accused me?
The ones who beat me down and bruised me
They hide just out of sight
Can't face me in the light
They'll return but I'll be stronger

God, I want to dream again
Take me where I've where I've never been
I want to go there
This time I'm not scared
Now I am unbreakable, it's unmistakable
No one can touch me
Nothing can stop me

Sometimes it's hard to just keep going
But faith is moving without knowing
Can I trust what I can't see
To reach my destiny
I want to take control but I know better

God, I want to dream again
Take me where I've never been
I want to go there
This time I'm not scared
Now I am unbreakable, it's unmistakable
No one can touch me
Nothing can stop me

Forget the fear it's just a crutch
That tries to hold you back
And turn your dreams to dust
All you need to do is just trust

God, I want to dream again (I want to dream again)
Take me where I've never been
I want to go there (I want to go there)
This time I'm not scared
Now I am unbreakable, it's unmistakable (I am unbreakable)
No one can touch me
Nothing can stop me.


Although I felt discouraged by life as a teenager and even by those well meaning people around me who love me, I have a dream now that I am going to chase. I believe that GOD IS ABLE and if HE wants me to do this, NOTHING CAN STOP ME!

Thanks to all of you for believing in me.

Please stay safe!
