8 hours sat and 4 hours today. I’ll wrap up some note taking.

Largely I hit my targets to keep me on target but I just don’t know about this exam. The Capital budgeting problems, financial ratios, financial management problems, and coming up tomorrow cost accounting variances. I just don’t know if I am going to be ready on 2/27.

I’m tired and honestly fed up. I know I am making progress but I just can’t see it sometimes.

I didn't write this. Don't know if it's true. Good moral. I never can tell where I am either. Hang in there.

On the Fourth of July in 1951, Florence Chadwick, the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions, attempted to swim from Catalina Island to the California coast. The challenge was not so much the distance, but the bone-chilling waters of the Pacific. To complicate matters, a dense fog lay over the entire area, making it impossible for her to see land. After about 15 hours in the water, and within a half mile of her goal, Chadwick gave up. Later she told a reporter, “Look, I'm not excusing myself. But if I could have seen land, I might have made it.”

Not long afterward she attempted the feat again. Once more a misty veil obscured the coastline and she couldn't see the shore. But this time she made it because she kept reminding herself that land was there. With that confidence she bravely swam on and achieved her goal. In fact, she broke the men's record by 2 hours!

Great storie, Katie, thanks. I'll keep going for sure it's just that one ratio going in the old brain seems to push the other one out. Repetition repetition repetition.

Great one liner Gimmesleep…undoubtedly they did not or she would have drown herself on the first try! 😀
