For the first time Carter is in the playpen in our room and we're downstairs with the baby monitor. Julia's coping okay with it.

Great WOD today! Felt the week and a half away on all those wall balls but it only enhanced my sweat angel making skills.

IV fail! IV was blown. No DCA tonight and unfortunately I have neither caths of my own to restart it or a wife who's willing to let me do. Will reformulate a plan tomorrow.

Self cleaning the oven worked so well it self cleaned the wiring for the control panel. Now we have no oven.

I accepted that I've become a beer snob and a coffee snob, but I may be a fitness snob? Watching a group do some boot camp style work out in the park my thoughts were: 1) those are some weak ass cheater burpees and they're on their first set. 2) why aren't they just going to Crossfit? 3) I need a good WOD. Thanks CFK!

So ready for this IV course I'm practicing at home!

Torturing the poor VON Nurse with Julia's awful veins. Four failed attempts and we sent her packing and went next door.

NASA has such cool stuff on their website. Now should I build a pinhole solar viewer or go buy some welder's glass?

Two new personal records today. Max Watt Row of 557 (old record 485) and 1 rep max back squat of 265 lbs (old record 185).

Pefferlaw and Aurora are both first response; who gets the up staff to make a full truck? Did you guess Aurora? Wrong!

Finally back to Pefferlaw. Now to drive back to Aurora and then to Ptbo.

What a crappy morning. Julia woke up with severe joint pain and we're not sure why. Might be the DCA, but the Doc hasn't seen anything like that before. Couldn't make it to Kingston for her appointment because she was in agony in the car so we turned around after a few minutes. Now we have to figure out how to get blood work done, so we can get her chemo and get that started. Thankfully some respite, both her and Carter are down for a nap and I might try for the same. Only gets better from he...

We're taking up a hall bed at PRHC. Takes to the crew from 4532; sorry I didn't catch your names.

This is one of the longest shifts I can remember. Our first call feels like a week ago. It's way too hot and way too MOH-ey today.

I need a favour from one or more scientifically inclined people or those willing to help with some leg work. Between Carter, work and life in general I have fallen way behind on my research into different treatments. I need some people to do the leg work, review and gather the abstracts for presentation to her Doctor's or to call and get more information on others. So if anyone is willing and able to do some homework for me, send me a message please.

At PRHC for Julia's MRI. Fingers crossed for some great results.

Welcome to the world Allison Kay Lynn Smith!

Higgs-Boson: I have never been so giddy about something I understand so little.

Home from work today.

Five calls. Two CTAS 1 returns and now overtime. Yay!!!

Bear complex was one tough WOD! 100lbs.

Finally some rain!!

Downside of going REALLY hard on a workout; being too sore and weak to put in a good showing the next day.

New 1RM OHS PR = 155lbs. 20lbs increase over last.

Trying a homemade apple butter BBQ sauce on grilled chicken tonight; all on J's diet. Apple butter, crushed tomato, tamari sauce, lemon juice, garlic, onion powder, cayenne, cinnamon. Tasted good, we'll see how it turns out.
