Well, tomorrow is the big day. Tom is sitting for the first of four sections of the CPA exam. He’s been studying daily for 8 months now, and everyone in the family is excited to see him take the first step towards becoming a Certified Public Accountant! It’s certainly not going to be easy (in fact, I’ve heard people say that it’s harder than the bar exam). It’s rare for people to pass all four sections of the exam on the first try. Let’s hope that Tom can be one of those lucky few!
Tom and I are lying in bed right now, and the above image is what I see next to me. I can’t wait for the day when he won’t need to study so hard each day. I know he’s dying to do some leisure reading on topics other than “Adjustments and Itemized Deductions.” And spend more quality time with his lovely wife, of course ;).
We’re also having our possible future home inspected tomorrow. Hopefully no unforeseen (and expensive) problems will be revealed…
Overall, I’ve had a wonderful and relaxing four-day weekend for the Thanksgiving holiday. I wish I could say the same for my hard-studying husband.
For those of you who are going back to work tomorrow after a long weekend, bon courage!
Oh, and happy 3rd monthiversary to me and Tom! ❤️
Happy Anniversary! And, I’d wish you luck, Tom. But, is sounds like pure skill and determination make ensure your success with the CPA exam. Ok, fine…good luck! 😜

Yes, it’s a long journey, but will so be worth it when it’s done! Even though I’m not taking it myself, I’m struggling and celebrating through it with him! Have you taken any sections yet?

It will be so worth it indeed!!! That is not
even a question. Yes, I have taken all 4 parts. I had passed two, however, I lost credit for a section after receiving a 74 on FAR. 🙂

Oh man! You lost credit for one that was outside the 18-month window? 74–so close! You’ll definitely pass FAR next time!

Yes, I lost credit for BEC last year…that wasn’t as bad as the 74….74 is the worst! That’s the goal! Death to the 74!
