Y’all, I was done with this day at 7:57 a.m. this morning. I am super specific about that time because I looked at my watch mere seconds before all hell broke loose and it’s etched into my brain wall. At exactly 7:57 am this morning, I was walking from my kitchen to the cat roomContinue reading “This Monday can take a freakin’ HIKE!”

Resurrection Sunday!
Happy Easter, everyone! He is risen! The tomb is empty! We are set free from our sins! We have the promise of eternal life because of Jesus’ death on the cross and his resurrection three days later. If ever there was someone who didn’t deserve to be loved and saved by Jesus, it’s me. I’veContinue reading “Resurrection Sunday!”

Public Disclaimer: if you’ve ever wanted to drive a police car like you stole it and NOT get arrested, or shoot a pistol, rifle or shotgun like a sharp shooter taking down a fugitive barricaded inside a house with hostages, this is the day you’ve been waiting for.

Bartlett PD Citizen Police Academy Week 6 (Part 1, CSI)
This was our last “classroom” event of our course before we graduate, and I’m truly going to miss this group of folks, and going to the Bartlett PD every week. I really like it there and ole Cap, along with the rest of the crew, has been so welcoming and made this 6 week courseContinue reading “Bartlett PD Citizen Police Academy Week 6 (Part 1, CSI)”
Yes, Yes, I know
I haven’t written my weekly Citizens Police Academy update yet. Y’all some impatient peeps is all I’m saying. I had an unexpected “global mental health” day off from work yesterday (they announced it back in February but I somehow missed the email) and took advantage of it by going to see a movie and spendingContinue reading “Yes, Yes, I know”
Bartlett PD Citizen’s Police Academy Week 5
Week 5 was our introduction into fight club. We had just 1 rule: We don’t talk about fight club. Pysch!!!! In all seriousness, it was all about Defensive Tactics with a dash of drones thrown in for good measure. I’ve gotta be honest, it proved to be a much more difficult subject to summarize forContinue reading “Bartlett PD Citizen’s Police Academy Week 5”

I also hadContinue reading “The Adventure to Buying My First Home Begins (or does it)”

Y’all. First off, let me say this: I WAS SICK THE FIRST HALF OF THE WEEK AS WELL AS LAST WEEKEND and tried to get out of this week’s class but the Captain totally “coerced” me with “Awe man. You are going to miss a fun night” and even though that doesn’t LOOK like aContinue reading “Bartlett PD Citizens Police Academy Week 4”
