Days 61- 64

J got ANOTHER commendable y'all! But first let me backtrack. This weekend J didn't come home, but he did get to hang out and stay with his brother & his girlfriend for the weekend. They spent the weekend hanging out, eating and letting J practice his new handcuffing techniques on them. We all got a video of it and could not stop laughing. J's brother played the part of a drunk old man SO WELL 😂 . I spent the weekend hanging out with my mommy- watching movies & shopping. We stopped by David's Bridal because I needed to try on a bridesmaid dress for my best friends wedding, and we ended up buying some swatches that I think will be the colors for J's & my wedding! Luckily for me, J LIKED THEM 😉. Sunday I went in to work early since the owners were going to close early so we could all enjoy the Super Bowl (Damn you Falcons). After the Super Bowl, my mom and I needed to laugh, so we watched "Sisters" with Tina Fey & Amy Poehler. Let me just say... HIL-AR-IOUS! J text me when he got back to the academy and was a little disappointed that no other cadet wanted to run- J thinks it's because he threw out the dreaded words "track workout". Maybe it's because J and I LOVE running, but it is disappointing that no cadet is willing to push themselves on a Sunday to get in better shape. It's only going to help them while they're there and in the long run- but to each their own I guess. Monday was a "stay in under the blankets" type of day. It was rainy, and dark and windy- however I did go outside and go for a run. During my run, I encountered some strong headwinds and not so friendly geese 😬😳. I heard from J around 5:45pm to the news that he got his SECOND commendable! He said one of the Staff Officers was walking in his direction and some of his fellow cadets ran away. J went to say good morning sir and the SO asked for some volunteers. All J and a few other cadets had to do was help move boxes and the SO told them to turn in a commendable! Side note- that particular SO is also J's Staff counselor 😉. J said they had a good day and started to learn about DUI enforcements. After dinner, some of his classmates got together and they went out and practiced shot gun for a few. We talked on the phone for a little bit after that, then J needed to shower and shine his boots. Fingers crossed I'll see J this weekend!

64 days down.. 130 to go!
