Rescued from the Stairwell

Well last night was a busy Saturday night here in the city.

 It was one of those nights when you arrive at the Police Station and there are no patrol vehicles around, that's never a good sign. Once I got in the locker room and changed, then came out to fall in I learned day shift was dealing with a weaoins call.

That wrapped up and I was able to get my patrol vehicle and head out on the road. The night was busy but not too crazy. I take my lunch at either 10pm or 2am it all depends on if I want to workout (10) or maybe have alittle nap (2).

Tonight was a workout night, I went upstairs to the gym and worked on my double-unders, and did a arms workout. I find with Crossfit you don't really work on arms if you want them to grow. As I was leaving the Gym I went down the stairs, in the past you could punch in a code and get out of the stairwell, but I guess they just increased security, as you now need a code and your swipe pass to get in, and of course I did not have my swipe pass. I called and checked if the sergeant was in the office, but of course he wasn't. So I called up to the dispatcher to see if there were any units around the office. Of course seeing a window to have some fun the dispatcher aired that she was looking for a unit to rescue me from the stairwell.

I must say that was a good laugh.

I ended up leaving my zone later in the night and going to the downtown disrict as they were haivng alot of issues around the bars and needed some help, I think I ended up breaking up 4 fights and stayed busy all night.

Hope you can enjoy laughing at me too

Ikea Man Cave

Hey Guys and Gals,

Hope you're enjoying your week, I'm just finishing my weekend ( Since I do 4 on 4 off ) as I go back to work tomorrow.

I must say I had pretty productive days off. On Sunday I went to a family birthday party and saw everyone after I woke up. Monday through Wednesday I made it too Crossfit and got good workouts in. 

One of the big things completed is that I got back on track eating healthy after getting into the Halloween candy. Doing the Keto diet Halloween has a bigger effect as it will easily knock you out of Ketosis, but I'm back in and I made some Keto treats to help bridge that gap..lol



One thing I have been picking away at has been my " Man Cave " the pic here shows what I started with and where I'm at now. I picked up the desk off of a buy and sell, and will be replacing with an Ikea Hack. The gaming chair i purchased at staples for 50% off!!!  The shelves in the back are 3 different shelves I put together the side pieces were not meant to be floating so it took alittle extra work. This will all be capped off with a 4K TV I hope to get on black Friday. The curtains on the side cover those pipes and electrical panels.

How is it going so far? tell me what you think.

10 Years in the Making

This is not a normal vacation for me..... This vacation is 10 years in the making.

In the Police world I guess like most jobs you pick your vacation based on seniority, and you are only allowed a certain amount of members off at a time. So in the area of the city I work there tends to be a lot of senior members, they are all avoiding the drunk bar goers of downtown...lol

So the reason I say this vacation is 10 years in the making is that this was the first time in my career that I was able to pick pretty much whatever date I wanted in the summer. Most years when it came around to me I would be lucky to get something at the start or end of summer.

I picked this week off as I was planning to go to The Crossfit Games with some of my friends from the gym, but having our 3rd baby and selling our house there was just too much to do.

This vacation started off with a 24 hour marathon, I worked my last night shift and then had to go to court in the morning right after shift. I was hoping the matter would be over and done with quick but I ended up not getting on the stand until 3:30pm in the afternoon, by the time I left court and got home it had been over 24 hours since I woke up the day previous to head to work. That messed me up for the next day as well.

I made it to the Crossfit Box yesterday and got in a good workout, workouts have been made tougher by the heat wave we are having here in Atlantic Canada. But I made it through it and tate ( my little guy ) made fun of me for the puddle of sweat I left behind.

Well that's a quick update, I plan on getting this blog up and running again, I hope you all enjoy

Crossfit Batman Working Out

For Halloween this year I went to a local thrift shop and found this Batman costume, I had a great time trick or treating with kids and got tons of candy.

After Halloween has passed I decided to have some fun with the costume to entertain Tate. Here is my first attempt at making a short Batman Movie lol
