For those of you that don't know yet, we found out about a week ago that Brent passed the exam he took back in May. So with that news and the fact that it's now mid-July, we are back in "study season" again. He will be taking exam 6 at the end of October so we are 15 weeks away, not that either of us are counting down already. :)
Yesterday, Brent took his first paid study day off of work. I am so proud of him. He woke up early and studied pretty diligently all day long. I believe he said the final count was 8.75 hours. Go Brent! There's no way I would have that much will power to stay focused all day. Especially if my spouse was home. Brent gets to divide up the 100+ hours of paid time from work into how he wants so this time, instead of taking the afternoon off a couple of days a week, he is going to take the entire day on Wednesdays. It should be pretty good. I just need to make sure that I have enough stuff to do that doesn't involve using the computer or needing to go into the bedroom a lot so that I don't interrupt him. Yesterday, I went downtown with a couple of girls to buy fabric. I have a feeling that is going to be a pretty common Wed activity. Good thing the stuff is cheap!
I'm always so amazed that Brent has the stamina to keep taking these tests every 6 months. He studies upwards of 300 hours for each one and 2/3 of that time is after work and on the weekends. 5 down, 4 to go! What a guy!
Good luck, Bubs!

Way to go, Beeje! Congrats on passing the test. Good luck with the next one. And the next one. And the one after that...
Hooray for Brent, I am very impressed at his dedication. Come hang out with us at the beach on Wednesdays.
I am with you Emily I don't think I would have the stamina to study that long. Good Luck Brent.
