CHP Academy Days 114 & 115/187

So I am going to start off today's post by saying...I have a video of Brian being tased.  A fellow cadet filmed it on his cell phone and Brian had him email it to me.  I have to say I am extremely proud of him!  He handled it really well.  In the back ground, you can hear others crying out in pain, but Brian just made a sound like Chewbaca groaning.  Honestly, the sound he makes is funny.  It is very confusing to watch; because, it hurts to see him in pain, but I have to laugh at the sound he makes.  I am still not sure what is tougher to watch; Brian actually being tased, or Brian waiting to be tased.  He was so nervous.  To make matters worse, the instructor played a joke on him.  A cruel joke.  He called out the "taser, taser, taser" warning but did not tase him.  Brian was all prepared, you can see him flinch, and nothing happened.  Then the instructor said "Alright, now are you ready?"  Poor Brian.  I am absolutely not allowed to post, Facebook, or email the video.  It is forbidden.  So if you want to see it you have to come over to my house.

Other than getting the video, nothing really exciting has happened.  I think my dishwasher is broken.  The dishes are not getting clean.  It is a huge bummer when you have to re-wash dishes that have already been washed.  It kind of turns me into a bear.  A bear, that for some reason, my girls cannot help but to poke.  I forgive them, but only because they actually cleaned their bedroom!  Then they kept it clean!!  :)  The highlight of the day was when M told me she loved me and I was her best friend.  AWWW, I know, right?  That was quickly followed up by her lunch order.  I am not joking, this is seriously what she said:  "I love you Mommy, you're my best friend. I want a hotdog and ketchup for lunch.  No bread, just hotdog and ketchup...and a cheese stick...some crackers...maybe something else...and milk...no bread.  Please."  At least she remembered to say "please".

Brian had mostly a quiet day at the academy.  He said range was fun and involved a lot of exercise.  He still has not had another chance at High Speed.  It has been a few weeks since his second attempt.  So far, that is the only thing he has not passed yet.  Hopefully he will get his next chance soon.

Tomorrow is Thursday and that means Growth Group, Pregnancy Center, and movie night.  At least that is what I think is on the schedule for tomorrow.  :)  'Night everybody!

Blessings,
