This weekend.....and other stuff too!

Well I guess my mom is taking our kids for the weekend. Sheena got a call from her earlier today and my mom asked Sheena if she could come pick up the kids Sat. morning and take them down to the family reunion then keep them til Sun. evening. I obviously didn't argue, I mean I love my kids, but a weekend without them every now and then is sure a nice treat. It hasn't happened very often, so now that it's happening I have absolutely no clue what to do with Sheena. I would like to do something fun, but it just seems like everything is so freaking expensive and not really worth what you have to pay you know? I'm sure we'll figure something out, just the fact that we will have a night without them will be good enough even if we don't go out and do anything different. I miss them when they're gone, but it sure is nice once in a while to get a little break from both of them and have some "us" time. Like I said, it's been so long since Sheena and I have had the opportunity to actually have a weekend to ourselves that I don't even remember what it's like ;)

I can't really think of any movie that is in the theater that I would like to see either. There are only a few that I can think of off the top of my head and I think all but one of them are movies that I'd rather wait and take Chelsea to like Wall-E. I'm sure Sheena wouldn't argue with going and seeing that new Angelina Jolie move "wanted". Sheena absolutely lusts after Angelina Jolie, I can't say as though I blame her though...yummy! Sheena has told me on many occasions that she would totally "do" her....I laugh inside whenever I think of that. How cool of a thing to say eh? Those are the only two movies I can think of that are out now that I would really want to see. We'll just have to see if they are playing anywhere and don't cost an arm and a leg just to get in. Who knows if all else fails we can stay home and watch porn right? Just kidding by the way Sheena....unless that IS what you wanna do hehehehehe ;)

So I'm reading these books for the Police Academy and so far they are basically just going over grammar and things like that. They are talking a lot about writing reports and different things like that where grammar plays a part in Police work. I'm having a hard time staying awake right now to read them. I'm sure it's mainly because I have been to the gym and am tired. I'm really sore today too, which is wierd. Maybe I pushed myself a little too hard yesterday who knows. I'll be fine though. Like they told us in the Army, "Pain is only weakness leaving the body!" How true that statement is. It sucked hearing it at the time because you knew you were in for something that wasn't going to be any fun at all. I'm still way excited for the academy, I can hardly stand it. I hope all goes well with it, and I'm able to do everything that I need to do in order to graduate. How cool would it be to graduate in the top of my class? I would freaking love that! The one thing I keep thinking to myself when I start to get a little worried about the academy is that at least I get to come home every night. When I was in basic training for the Army I was in Oklahoma so obviously coming home each night was NOT a possibility. Not like they would let you go home anyway even if you lived close by. But with the academy it's only in Orem, so I'll go to work, then after work I'll head up there till 9:00 PM each night and then head home. Knowing that I get to go home each night will make it that much easier to deal with the crap that they give us or the stress that comes with it I think.

Well I'm going to go now, but I figured I'd write a quick note in here touching on a few things that came to mind while reading those study guides. It's almost time to go home...yaaay it's Friday!
