Days 52 & 53

Tomorrow is FRIDAY! and you know what that means.. J gets to come home for the weekend. Luckily for us, there is NO snow in the forecast. Yesterday was a pretty good day. I woke up to yet another good morning text from J around 5am. I woke up a few hours later, got my day started, then headed into work. While I was at work, J even managed to sneak in another text before reporting in to his Wednesday night restriction. I got off around 7pm, ran 5 miles on the treadmill and did a workout. Right around 9pm I heard from J. He had sent a group text between him, myself and my uncle (the CHP officer). He had sent us this picture :
It's their guide on flag! J gets to carry it because he's the fastest runner in his company (technically his class, but who's bragging 😎). He has to carry it with him at all times when he's at the academy- at least I'm pretty sure that's what he was saying, and during their runs! J had 2 tests yesterday- one on custody, which he got 93% on, and a midterm that covered all of the information they've gone over so far, which he got 94% on! I'm so proud of him! Since it was already late when I heard from him, we called it a night early on. Today was sort of the same thing. I woke up a little later than usual- sometimes it's so hard to get out of bed when you're nice and warm and know the cold awaits you. I had work from 1-7, got home, ran on the treadmill, then talked to J. He had 2 very big tests today- Use Of Force. His first test was the agency (CHP) use of force test and then POST (peace officer standard training) test. Both tests he got 95% on! He said they were studying all during restriction and felt comfortable going in to it. We talked for a little bit on the phone, then J wanted to shine his boots and pack his weekend bag. Before we hung up, I told J I counted how many actual days at the academy they have left- 104!!!! That's excluding weekends but including any weekends they have to stay (pepper spray day, community service, etc). But just 1 day until I see J! 

53 days down.. 141 to go!
