A Big Week Ahead

This is Candi...Jeremy is busy studying. Last week, Jeremy had one flight on Wednesday (his 4th flight) and did well. This week, he has 3 flights, one of which is a checkride that is a HUGE deal. He also has some academic classes and some sims (one is also another checkride) mixed in so it will be the busiest week so far.

The checkride on Friday will qualify him to fly an A-10 on his own without an instructor shadowing his every move. Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers as he will definitely need them this week.

On a brighter side, I went to dinner with the wives' club and met some lovely ladies who are married to the instructors in Jeremy's squadron. In his class of 10 students, 3 others are married and another has a serious girlfriend, so we already hang out together. It was nice to meet some new friends at the wives' club as well. They get together each month and plan all the parties, etc. for the squadron. I went to a few events in San Antonio as well, and I have to say, that the wives at both bases are some of the most friendly and caring women I've met. It really helps to have friends here since Jeremy has been studying practically every night of the week and some on the weekends as well.

I posted some more pictures of JJ this last week, so check them out at www.picasaweb.google.com/candijeremyp. He had his 2 month well-baby visit and his 1st immunizations and handled them both pretty well. We had a few restless nights, but hopefully, we are back on track. He is sleeping most of the night- getting fed before I go to bed, then again during the night (3ish), and then again early morning (7ish). We've had some 5-6 hour stretches between meals so it's definitely better than it was (eating every 2 hours when he was born).

That's pretty much all I have to report. Sorry, I'm not as comical as Jeremy is. He'll surely be back next weekend to make you chuckle- after this stressful week is over!
