I'm in a hurry but wanted to update everyone on the status of my shoes. I know you are all waiting with baited breath. I took back the brown pair and got these instead (picture is black but mine are called fudge). They are still pretty cute, at least I think.


We had a great weekend. Justin went to the Cowboys pre-season game. While he was there I went out for sushi with Lindsay. I used my new reveiw course materials while studying this weekend. I am pleased with it. It is alot easier to use than the course I used for the last section. Plus it has simulation examples. That last part probably only makes sense to me or others studying for the CPA exam. But I did like my new software and books.

New Shoes

I know everyone is going to be jealous after reading this post. I got two new pairs of shoes this weekend! And a giraffe. Both pairs of shoes are for work so it was not as fun as just getting to buy whatever I wanted but still fun since I do have to wear "work" shoes almost everyday. The giraffe is just to look cool in my living room.

Since I started this post, which was yesterday, I have decided to take the brown pair back. I am going to exchange them for something more comfortable even though I love them!

The Greatest Show on Earth

I have been swamped at work. We are getting into busy season and I am lucky enough this year to be a part of that. We get busy because all the corporations extend their returns and the new deadlines are 9/15 or 10/15. So I have been trying to get in early, leave a little late, and not goof off which includes blogging. But on a happier note, I got the results of my reviews back and I got a 4. That is on a 5 point scale and stands for "exceeded expectations". Hopefully, my rating will help increase the amount of my raise this year. I'll find out end of September.

We went to see the Greatest Show on Earth last weekend. It was my first circus experience and I really enjoyed it! Of course I liked the acrobats best but I also thought the tigers and horses were cool. Not to mention the little person clown.

You can barely see the acrobats in this one.

Woo-Hoo: I'm almost 1/3 done with the CPA exam!
Boo: I have to take the test on Monday :(

We had a nice relaxing weekend. We stayed over at my parent's house and did alot of hanging out at the pool. They are all out of town so it was just us and Atticus. I studied on Saturday and Sunday in preparation for the CPA. I am taking the Regulation section on August 14.

I added a new link to my blog over on the left. It lets you identify where you want to start and then map out a route (for running, walking, or crawling whatever your preference may be). I like to use it to know how far I am running. I like to go by distance not time because then you can't slack or it will just take longer.

Not a lot to say (I'm not pregnat and we didn't buy a house) but just wanted to update.

Woo-Hoo: I got a little bit of a tan from laying out this weekend. It is always good to not be pasty!

Boo: Monday. Enough said.
