Alarm

Apparently, it isn't only others who need this site. I am on an ambulance squad (So is Dr. G, what a coincidence!) Coming back from a call this morning, I see the clock says 6:16. I realize that my alarm is about to go off. This will disturb others, as (1) I am not home to shut it off and (2) I moved it away from my bed and near the door before I left (WHY is for another time). So now it will disturb everyone in the house.  But wait, it gets better.

I state to my fellow crewmate that I am about to be in big trouble because my alarm is going off in one minute, much to the displeasure of others. He responds " Oops, mine's going off at 6:20."

We debated just staying on the ambulance all day.

  1. In the end, you and Mr. Crewmate "woke up" your families to see the true gomlei chesed you each are. I can see it now... Instead of being annoyed or muttering or stomping angrily to shut the alarm, they're surely standing in silent awe and admiration.

    N-O-T
