Another one down!
I passed!!
Audit and Attestation = 87! Woo!!
Now, I just need my dang Regulation score. That is the one I think I failed. But, at least I can go to Costa Rica knowing, at most, I only need to study for Reg. Not that I will study in Costa Rica
Yeah, me!

Update and Update
1- I had my last CPA exam today. I probably failed it. Don't ask me how I did. Don't say, "I'm sure you passed." I will update with scores when I get them. Until then, I will not think about the fact that I probably failed and will have to start studying again and then my daughter will hate me again and my husband will be a mopey PITA because he has to help do stuff.
2- Woo hoo! No studying for a bit!
3- A bunch of pictures:
Hazel in the doll crib. She is way too big for it, but thinks it is fabulous. This is not the first picture I have of her in the crib. She spends many mornings reading in the crib.
Sometimes she also reads on the floor. In a swimsuit. Because, you never know when you are going to need to be ready to swim without notice.
Zoe and Grandma Marilyn came to stay for a few days. While Hazel has a stormy relationship with Zoe (and Grandma, and everyone, really), she really did have a great time and misses them already. I just wish she would be nice to people when they are around. Especially poor Zoe.
Gloria also came to visit and they rode on the horse together. And it was adorable.
Hazel has discovered the joy of leaping from her window seat. Luckily, she had that itty-bitty foam pad to land on. Seriously, it is not providing that much cushioning.
Hazel does not care. She is brave. She is adventurous. She is crazy.
Cute new sundress. See the happiness and joy at wearing a cute, matching outfit?
And see even more joy at mismatching clothes with someone else's shoes.
Also, she got a tattoo.

Another one bites the dust!
Back from San Francisco, got an 87 on my FAR (Financial something Reporting)!!! WOO HOO! I am awesome!
Really, I had no idea how I would do on this exam, so I am thrilled and surprised by the 87. A lot of time and candy (mostly Whoppers) went into that 87.
Go me!
Update on SF later. Or check Jenni's blog (kittypotpie.blogspot.com)

One Down, Three (or Five) to Go!
Woo hoo! I passed one section of my CPA exam. So, one of four national tests but then there are two state exams too. Thus the three or five to go. The state exams are much smaller/easier than the national exams so they don't count as much.
Anywho, passed one. BEC. With an 86. You could say I 86'ed it. HA!
The end. I am going to San Francisco tomorrow with Jenni. I am sure she will update when we are back. I probably won't...

CPA, Here I come.
I am testing out Post Options. If it works, this will post exactly (ish) when I am starting to take my next CPA test (#2 out of 6, assuming I pass everything the first time, like 8% of people do).
Instead of partying after this one, like I did with the last one, I will be going to the dentist. Hooray for dental hygiene. I will be getting the gas.
Wish me luck. I'm gonna need.
PS I will post a real entry, with pictures, after my test. Maybe even before I go to the dentist.
PPS It looks to me like the "post options" (Now! With Extra Sarcasm) do not so much work. As I can see my posting at it is 10:10pm on 04/28/08. Stupid Blog.

Adorableness to Counteract the Cranky Post of a Few Days Ago
So, I am sitting here "studying", except for that I am not because there is a small person helping, and I yell for Geoff that I need water. Because let me tell you, yo, studying makes a gal thirsty. And Hazel yells, "Dad, I need water too!" For some reason, this strikes me as adorable.
Also, she is coloring with "mom's pink pen", aka my highlighter. And, whilst drawing she is narrating. Apparently, she is drawing something with wings, and then she proceeds to show me how wings work. With all the arm flapping that a two-year-old can muster. Two wings. Oh, it is an airplane. Honestly, I thought it was a snail.
Currently, she is spinning in our office chair and singing "Frere Jacque." (you know the French song, I am not sure of the spelling and not willing to Google it)
Maybe you had to be there.
Totally better than studying for the stupid CPA exam. Which I will probably fail. And then I will cry. Boo hoo.
Oh, and then there is the story of the "not clapping." So, the other night at dinner, Hazel does something fantastic (I forget what), and decides it is worthy of.... I don't know, something. And proceeds to "not clap", which is, of course, where she brings her hands not quite together. Geoff asks her what she is doing and she replies, "not clapping." Again, maybe you had to be there.

I = Slacker
Okay, so the answer was "duck". Jenni will be getting a prize soon. Even though she should be disqualified because she gave two answers. But, the prize is the duck art, and I think Candi probably gets enough kid art as it is, what with three boys and all.
Anyway, that is my only update. I have two weeks and like 13 hours until I take my first CPA exam, and even though that sounds like a lot, it is not. Oh, and I am freaking out about it.
Thanks for playing my game. I may have a better contest when I my stress level drops to a bearable level.
