Morning...Not So Good Though

It's finally Friday and I should be ecstatic. I get to sleep in tomorrow and actually get some of my house work done.
Yet it sucks.
It's a blah day because they keep saying that there's storms coming in. It looks like it but nothing has really hit yet. Not even rain. So we'll see if it really happens.
I'm back down to one radio again. We turned in our radios last night to get upgraded but I didn't get a new one as I got mine from the Rescue Squad. They went over how to use them but not how they're going to be used between agencies so basically I don't know how to use my radio for fire.
Whatever.
I started Sunrise on the Reaping last night and I'm super excited to get into it. I'm only two chapters in and I want to read more. I have a feeling based on some tik tocks though that I'm going to end up bawling my eyes out at some point.
I'm missing a shift at EMS today. I could have gone in and covered for someone but Chris already paid me so I couldn't really do that. It sucks because I'm trying to get shifts but the last couple times I haven't been able to. I will be taking one all the way in July though. It was on the calendar so I'm taking it.
I'm trying to get my mind on work or something, anything else besides the department. I just can't seem to shake it though. Quitting has never looked so good than it does right now.
Oh well, what's everyone else up to today?

@RebeccasFarm One of these days I'll have a house of my own. I hope you hear back and get the answers you want.

We didn't get any of the thunderstorms predicted overnight and it looks like it's starting to clear up this morning. Nothing much going on here this morning.
Enjoy your book and I'm going to have to put that one on my list. Sounds like it's a good read even though you haven't gotten very far.
Sorry that you're frustrated with the whole EMS shifts.

Sunrise on the Reaping is already starting out better than The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes.
We didn't get the storms either but it doesn't look good. I'm pretty sure we'll miss the worst.
I'll get shifts at EMS it just seems like all I have is bad timing right now.

Maybe a good storm coming in would clear out all of the negative energy in your world. I hope things get better.
