Get here quicker?

So clearly I'm not great at blogging. I've never been good at journaling or writing down anything really. Here we are at the beging of September and Matt has two weeks left in the academy. I have not recorded anything about it, and as always I wish I had. For the past 18 weeks Matt has been working so hard, with mountain runs and physical training, being pepper sprayed, fighting guys (and a girl) who train MMA fighters, getting punched in the face repeatedly, punching his friends in the face repeatedly, and so much more. I think by now he would say it's been a crazy experience but he finally came home last week telling me about what a fun day it had been. They had practiced tactical driving so he got to flip on the police lights and practice chasing other vehicles. It is so funny for me to see him enjoying his time in the academy because for the first month or so, specifically the first three weeks he had no hope whatsoever. They break you down so much, telling these recruits that they are worthless trash, and cuss word cuss word scum, picking on them for anything at all even the stupidest things like being too tall or too short. It was all silly, just mind games, but man... Matt took it hard. There were days that he would come home and just tell me, I don't know if I can do this babe... Poor guy. But here we are, almost done! Through the yelling, training, homework and endless papers, memos, perfect reflective boot shining, here he is with a smile.

That about sums up our summer. We went to a Dierks Bentley concert, Matt and I celebrated our two year anniversary and I turned 21.  So now on to everything else, complete police training took over. We are trying to buy house but have been stuck waiting to get pre-qualified for a loan. Matt has to graduate the academy first. September 19th, feel free to come quicker. We are so ready to move. It has been a blessing in many ways to have lived in my nana and tata's little add on appartment, but when I say little I mean it.. like as in very low ceilings (haha keep in mind - Matt is 6'4''). The rent is fantastic and should have been a great two years to save money.. but instead I think I may have shopped a little much. All in all, we have out grown this place. There is nothing about it that I will miss, especially the newly added creatures that have decided to move in the last month or so. However, every seems to say "You'll miss those simple times when you were first married, the place you lived and everything about it." I guess we'll see, but for now I'm ready for change. But hey, who knows, maybe I'll eventually wish it all wouldn't have been here so quick.
