Hello, everyone! I hope your Saturday is going as well as mine. I spent a good few hours over at my mom's with my family, just relaxing and enjoying the day. Then my sister had to lie down, my mom had to help a friend with her Christmas stuff, and I had to go rent some movies for two of my classes.

Just as I pulled up to the intersection before the movie store, I saw people running around and a horn blaring, and sure enough, some SUV had just rammed a truck, or vice versa. I spent about 5 to 10 minutes, not sure how long, holding a guy's neck until the EMTs showed up and took over. He was awake when I left, and sounded in fairly good shape, so I figure I did my good deed for the day. I used to be an EMT for a few years, about seven years ago, so it felt good to be doing something helpful again. In fact, I've been thinking about possibly getting my EMT license again. Anyway, the guy seemed to be all right, besides the knock to the head, so I took off when the EMT relieved me and got my movies.

I am now putting my Christmas tree up and my other decorations. It's a good day. I hope everyone else is doing well. Take care, talk to you later!

You definitely did your good deed for the day! Perhaps you really ought to consider getting that license again!

I'm seriously considering it. The class is hard and long, but I enjoy helping people, even just through volunteering. Plus, I met some really neat people last time.

*Hugs*

Nah, anyone would have done it. But it felt good to help the poor guy.

Well, maybe if "anyone" had the know-how, and did not freeze up or panic...

Give yourself some credit, sweetie!

Wow! Good on you for getting involved in the heat of the moment. Not everyone would do what you did. ♥ Makes me all the more glad to know you.
