I will never betray my badge,
my integrity, my character,
or the public trust.
I will always have
the courage to hold myself
and others accountable for our actions.
I will always uphold the constitution
my community3 and the agency I serve.

Today I'm grateful for:ALL the children being OK.
JUNE being OK.
other mothers being as pissed off as I was. I was not alone.
NOT doing something stupid. The imaginary News bulletin in my head helped "Local concerned mother arrested. Film at 11"
feeling better about being sick. When you are driving down your street and you see 3 school busses full of children surrounded by smashed up cars & police and you KNOW these are the busses going to your Childs school something happens to you. All blood drains from your body and pools in your feet, your head gets kinda foggy as you scan the wreckage for ANY sign of your child and you just PRAY the traffic will move so you can pull up to a police officer and find out if your child is safe. EVERYTHING outside of knowing that ceases to exist. All sickness is forgotten, all annoyances of minor morning infractions gone, concerns over world peace war and politics explode into nothingness and you fail to notice you've stopped breathing. My child is OK and I'm OK with being sick. Again.
sleepy puppies. This little warm spot in my lap has soothed my frayed nerves.
my missed day of work and the current bout of the lurgy only costing me $85.
Netflix. I reactivated my account. For the cost of renting 3 movies from Blockbuster, I can rent unlimited movies IN BLU-RAY AND watch unlimited movies on my PC instantly. Totally rad dude. I've been watching old movies all day. THE SAME movies Blockbuster now wants’ to charge me $5 to rent. Not a bright Idea Mr. Blockbuster CEO. Charge ME $5 to rent old movies? I don't think so...
knowing there are good cops out there. Even if I happen to be harboring a grudge against one. OK, two.
This is after the clean-up.
You can't see the smashed SUV
embeded into the front of the bus.
