Light at the end of the tunnel

Well after a rejuvenating weekend in Aptos with Mary and Joe, I arrived home to my appointment letter for the second section of the Lt. test. I am taking it on Friday, August 22 at 2PM.

8,22,2PM,08 for those who like numbers. Sounds like a good number to me. Repeat numbers have always had significance in my life. Max was born on 8/8/99. Michie and I were married on 7/7 and Kris passed away on 6/6.

So I will be studying once again especially since the last week got very overwhelming.

I am focused and thinking positively. "I will be calm and confident during the test." "I am knowledgeable and in command during the test." I will write these statements on post-it notes and put them up all over my house. I will. I will.

PS: For those of you who heard that they split this part of the test between August and September, they actually unsplit it! So this is the complete and final section of the test.
