Coming Out from Under My Rock
Wow, has it really been that long since I last posted!? Sorry guys, I'm slack.
Let's do the condensed version of things.
1) I passed my fifth and final CFP exam yesterday. It took me three tries to pass that bitch, but it's done now. Now I have to prepare for the monster final, a 2 day long behemoth that threatens to unravel the last few threads of my sanity. That will be in November or March, I haven't decided yet.
2) Ian is doing great at daycare - he moved up to the three year old room a few weeks ago (even though he's 3 1/2) and he's loving it. He is potty training at last! He has had a dry diaper every night for the last five nights, and he goes to pee in the potty nearly every time he needs to. Pooping is a whole other matter. Not as successful at that yet, but I've been reassured that that sometimes takes a good bit longer than the peeing.
3) Went to Seattle the first weekend in June to meet up with some friends. Had a blast. Stayed drunk most of the weekend, fell on my face on the sidewalk (literally), and met some really wonderful women.
4) The day after I got back from Seattle was my second retest for the CFP. I should have known better. Not only was I hung over but I was jet lagged too. I went in to the test, failed it, then came outside to find Scott waiting for me. After I stopped crying about the test I realized that he should be at work; it was then that he told me that he had been laid off. June 5th will now go down in the books as one of my shittiest days. But he has obtained employment with someone else, a better employer who actually appreciates the hard work he does.
5) Our air conditioning keeps going out. We're not pleased. This has been going on for so long. Luckily we have a home warranty that the sellers bought for the house to sweeten the purchase. I know those tight bastards are not going to happily fork out the cash to replace the unit, but I honestly think that's what it's going to take. The A/C guy is coming over this evening for the 6th or 7th time since October. Blech.
That's about it for now. Got to get back to cleaning the house. I have had to seriously let it go while I was studying for this test, but now I can get back on top of things (at least until I have to start studying for the next one!).
