Day 30:
Wow... it's nearly been a month since I started this blog. Time literally seems to be flying by at an accelerated rate, definitely not good. So much to do and so much packed into each day for the foreseeable future that it is making my head spin a little. Today is also one of those days that I think 2 photos are in order. As I was leaving to head down to Coxside to start my HSE First Aid at Work refresher course, I came out to the car and found it absolutely coated in ice. The amazing parts were the designs in the ice. As the sun shone through the rear window and through the windscreen (windshield for those in the US), it was absolutely beautiful and seemed almost as if feathers had been drawn in the ice.

The HSE First Aid at Work refresher course was all about revisiting the topics of how to handle certain situations at the work place and how to recognise the signs so that the correct treatment is administered. We had to run scenarios, practice bandaging and slings and work with our resuscitation dummies in addition to revisiting some theory based learning. You always hope that although this is all good to know that you don't ever really have to use it.
