Day 148/194 - Start of Week 22!

Monday, Week 22!
I have so much on my mind lately. Packing, moving out of my current home, and finding a place for Kev and I is keeping me pretty distracted right now. Even though it is a little stressful, maybe it will help time go a little faster.

We are talking about graduation every day now but there is still a lot for the cadets to wrap up before that day arrives. They did however start filling out graduation paperwork yesterday. Kev said they started the day with information systems. Basically driving and getting used to the squad car controls. After that, they had boxing. He says everyone typically tries to take it easy to some extent to avoid getting injured but once you get a good hit to the face, it's on! Supposedly a lot of cadets were going at it yesterday and getting some pretty good hits in on each other. Intro to DUI training is starting now too. It's called DRE training - drug recognition 'something', maybe examination? Anyways, they learn to recognize the symptoms of different drugs on a person. After the DRE class, they had more report writing to prep for the report test on Tuesday. It's a pretty big test, so I'll be sending Kev lots of good thoughts!

In addition to DUI courses, we also have agency high speed testing to anticipate sometime in the near future. We are really starting to wrap up and it feels SO good :) Speaking of agency high speed, good luck with your boyfriends and husbands coming home and driving you around on weekends when the only driving they have been doing for months is EVOC. Kev 'accidentally' squealed my wheels around a right turn off the freeway this weekend and got a little leg smack from me in the passenger seat. He definitely forgets sometimes that he isn't in the Academy and I'm not a staff officer, I'm scarier so he better quit hitting those apexes when he is home ;)
