I didn't get much done at all last night. My older daughter gave me a hard time to go to bed and once she was asleep my 18 month old woke up screaming!!!! DAMN TEETH!!! Gave her some Tylonel but once she calm down it was 12:30am. Oh well today's another day.

@yankee, For some reason, since I've started this CPA journey, I fell even more in love with the movie. I already loved it since I live in my cube and have a printer that jams incessantly. One day I will take a bat to that darn thing!

Last night was a success (aside from missing my Bears). I knocked out 4 1/2 hours of lectures. I'm hoping to get through 6 more today. Happy Tuesday all!

This has been going on and off with the teeth for a few weeks now. She's getting her eye teeth and I think she's getting two of them at once. I tired working on MCQs while I had her cuddle in my lap but that didn't work. So her and I watched Dancing with the Stars that I DVRed. The music from the show calmed her down.

@katiekanton, You just made me bust out in laughter in my cube making my coworkers think I'm insane, so thank you for that! LMAO!

@jomarie, hang in there. You have no idea how much I admire people like you who are attacking the CPA while raising a family. I'm not a mother and I can't imagine having to be responsible for other tiny humans especially since there are times when I forget to feed myself, let alone anyone else!

@katie

too funny!!!!

@JoMarie

Those days are tough. My youngest was always tougher on medical type issues. He would just belt out crying (I most often had the crap scared out of me, because the screaming/crying was so loud I was convinced he was deathly ill) and it was so hard to console him. And he was a night owl to boot (ok, I have used that word twice here today! got REG on the brain), so relief came later. Tylenol helped me out of alot of jams. I hope that will work for you tonight! If nothing else, watch DWTS again!

[jomarie]

@yankee –

I have about 10 episodes DVRed so I'm equiped to go!! I might just have to set up my laptop on the coffee table next to me so I can rock her as well. Maybe I'll try something harder like Advil or Mortin. I don't think the Tylenol is doing the trick. I gave her the Tylenol at like 10 and she was still up at 12.

So how's everyone's week going? I was able to put in a good 2 hours last night, studied about 1/2 hour during lunch yesterday, and listened to Yaeger's audio lectures to and from work.

So far I haven't been doing to well, last night I was visiting a friend who had their father suddenly pass away, but today I will get back on track. I am shooting for 5 hours total today.

Good luck studying everyone!

[yankeeaccountant]

hey guys,

Well I almost got thru Module 4 in the Wiley review book, so today I have to kick it and finish up mod 5 too. Probably about 200 mcq's. That takes me awhile since I take notes. I am shooting for 7 hours.

@Pacific

Sorry to hear about your friends Dad.

@Jomarie

I am hoping your DWTS episodes helped you out last night 🙂

[KasiaS]

@pacific I'm sorry to hear about your friend's dad passing. It's great that they have a friend like you for support.

Last night's studies went pretty well. I chalked up another 4 hours of lecture. I busted my ankle so I called the studies off for a while to medicate. Nothing too bad just a sore, swollen ankle though it hurt like help last night! I'm hoping for 5 hours tonight.

@KasiaS

Bummer about your ankle! But kudos to you–you are really kicking it! Keep it up 🙂

[Macc Grad]

Did 9 hrs Monday, 11 hours Tuesday, and I'm going to attempt 12 hours today.

Of course that doesn't mean that I actually learned anything, because I feel like the new stuff pushes the old stuff out.

I hate FAR.
