much needed day

Today Don and I went to Spokane. The VA called two days ago saying they had forgotten to do an x ray that they needed to have on file.  And it was a great day.  We talked, laughed and had lots of needed fun.  Plus they reimburse us for the trip.  We took the back way home so we could have extra time together.  It was beautiful.  Snow was covering the fields and the trees were covered in frozen crystals. We took the camera but didn't have the tripod.  Otherwise we would have stopped and taken a few pictures of us together. We don't have many.  What a great day.  What a great start to a three day weekend.  I'm trying to forget about the math that is waiting so patiently for me.  I studied and did math for over 5 hours yesterday and was so excited that I was actually 'getting it'.  And so I went to the chapter I was working on and took the post test but didn't get an 80%.  So I can't move on to the next chapter.  And I cried.  And cried.  I was so exhausted from working so hard.  And then to not be able to move to the next chapter was disappointing.  Again...I will continue to study and will succeed.  I have until Feb 28th to do all the chapters and take the final test.  I love how they have post tests for each chapter. I love how WGU does their grading.  If you do not score an 80% or better you can't move to another course.  It shows complete competency skills. 

Thankful for a completely relaxing day.  It was so needed.  I am now ready to take on the weekend.
