Last Saturday, I went on a major motorcycle ride in honor of fallen firefighters.
On Sunday, I brought my partner to the bedroom, blindfolded him, and turned off the lights. Then I yelled "fire" and we practiced our home fire drill. (Get your mind out of the gutter!)
On Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, I visited senior pals and changed batteries or entire smoke alarms as needed. Smoke alarms last only ten years, so if the alarm was older, I put up a new one.
Also on Wednesday, I had a chimney sweep come to our house and clean our chimney, and a service technician check over our furnace as winter heating season will soon be upon us.
On Thursday, I dropped by my local fire station for a visit, and to thank the firefighters, EMTs, and paramedics who are there every day protecting us.
Life is short: thank a firefighter!
