Will & Grace

I'm not sure if any of you watched this show but I loved it. I am so sad that it has been off the air for years but I do own all the seasons. I can quote many-a-quotes.

Karen and Jack were my favorite on this show. There are some episodes that I laugh so hard that I literally have tears coming down my face!




















 

Just another Manic Monday err weekend, in the jail

Ok so not really. More like a manic weekend. Work weekend that is...


Let's start out with Friday night in the jail.
Attempted suicide in the jail.
Around 7o'clock at night there was a call on the radio for all available officers to get to 2nd floor for an inmate who was trying to hang himself. I never ran so fast in my life. Of course the elevators couldn't have gone ANY slower.
This inmate had taken off his uniform and tied it around his neck to the bars and was trying to drop to his knees. However one of the girls I work with was using all her strength to hold him up and tell him no stop. Luckily she was able to hold him up until another officer was able to arrive and help her.
By the time I got there they had him down. I helped walk him in to the mental health area.
Shortly after that I noticed that he was taking the special made suicide blanket and trying to find something to hang it on. We then had to go in to his cell and take that away from him.

Saturday night.

Working as Intake officer. Night started out pretty well. Until, I had to take away a female inmates mail. Inmate are only allowed to have 6 inches of mail in their property tote. This female probably had 20 inches of mail. I asked her to hand me some of her mail out so I could put it in her property bag she FREAKED out. She started talking to herself and crying. I eventually got her calmed down after 15 minutes of telling her I was trying to take over her space but just follow the rules and take a little bit away and store it in her property bag. I kept telling her she would get it when she would leave. (Now this wasn't even 'mail' it was just a ton of paper that she had written things on. While scanning it, it appeared she was having conversations with herself on the paper.

Sunday night.
Shakedown. We did shakedowns in 4 different pods aka housing units. Let's just say I sweating by the time we were done going through everything! An male inmate happened to have to many socks in his possession. I tried explaining this to him but he just kept trying to talk over me and clapping as he was talking. It was going nowhere. Eventually I just had to tell him, look, point is, you can only have 3 you have 4, I'm taking one and putting it in your property. The great thing about this night was that the Sergeant bought DQ Blizzards for everyone afterwards. YUM!!

How was your weekend?


 

Me, Myself, & I Link-up

1. What would you attempt to do if you knew you could not fail? I would own a doggy daycare, flower shop, or a coffee shop.

The Siblings

I grew up in a big family. I have 2 older sisters, and 2 brothers. Most people would hate it having that many people in a house but there never was a dull moment and I always had someone to play with!

My sister Rachel.

She is the second oldest. She is married and has 2 daughters named Harper and Madelyn.

She is an Occupational Therapist.

My brother Adam.

Adam is my older brother. He is married and had a son named Henry. He is a special education teacher for elementary.

Next is me.

Well you pretty much know about me. Married to Brent with 2 fur babies.

My baby brother Tony.

My baby brother Tony is in the army. He is currently stationed in San Diego but will be leaving in November to go to a different base is Southern Arizona. So proud of him!

Well that's it folks. These are my siblings! How many do you have?!

Weekend Recap

Hey ladies, it's Monday. I'm sure most of you hate mondays, but I have today and tomorrow off and that makes this girl one happy camper!

So this weekend I got to watch the movie Machine Gun Preacher.
At first I thought oh great another macho man movie. Oh how I was wrong. What a good movie. I didn't know that it was based on a true story. Gerald Butler is in the movie and I think he did a great job portraying the actual person.
If you get a chance check the out the movie. It may suprise you!



I also watched the show Hell on Wheels. It was ok. Not a show I would again.

I got in the mail today this pretty little thing




The German mini opi collection. I can't wait to paint my toenails with that blue or purple. They have a ton of other colors in the collection too. My goal, to have all the Germany collection!

My husband and I are off to see a movie this evening. However we are not sure which one we want to watch.
