Darn it! Life intrudes on the fun I guess. 
I started the diagnostic test yesterday. On the first 20 questions I had a 60%, which is much better than expected–by me at least. I’m sure it will go downhill from there. I think you need 75% to pass though, so that is a good place to start. I am going to make myself work on it every day. I mean it. Mrs. Strictness here. Right? Uh huh. I mean, a C.P.A would be nice. What’s another year of studying?
In other news. I went and had acupunture done to help with my shoulder. Although I am feeling nearly back to normal, my fingers are still numb, which bothers me, and my arm feels weak and sore a lot. So this is supposed to help. He put in a bunch of needles in my neck, shoulder and arm, and then hooked up electrical wiring to me. K said it looked like he was trying to jump a car–or wake Frankenstien. Thanks honey! The pain was not bad, but you know with electricity how it’s hard not to be tense? I mean, electicity hurts, right? So I was sitting there while he’s telling me to relax going, sure, right, I’ll do that–as soon as you pull all these needles out and turn off the voltage!!
Our car is fixed–for those who didn’t know, it was in the shop for some time. Now he asked K if I would consider trading out tax work on his biz and personal taxes for some of the fee. Love it!
I’m really only reading Lord of the Rings right now. You know how sometimes books get really addictive and you can’t put them down? Well, I’m in the middle of it. It’s the last thing I put down at night and the first thing I pick up in the morning. Yesterday I was reading, sitting on the floor, book on the coffee table (it’s a big book) and K’s like, what are you doing? I realized I was in the middle of one of the poems and was whispering it to myself. They are soooo much better read aloud. The sound and poetry come through and it’s much more understandable if you ask me. He laughed, but it’s true!!! Try it. If you’re every reading prose with some poetry thrown in.
