So I passed my last EA exam. Did I mention that? Yes. Yes I did. I passed all three exams and each on the very first try! So now I just need to send in the application and fee to the IRS and then I’m done. The hard part is over! I am done studying and stressing about tests. I am still breathing a sigh of relief. I know that I still am because each day I’ve been having these moments where I’m doing absolutely nothing of importance and after a period of time goes by I catch my breath and panic with this thought: “Oh no! Am I supposed to be doing something?!” But alas, I am not.

It’s kind of unnerving, not having a huge task over my head, and while I enjoy it I still think I operate more productively when I have a lot on my plate. Because I am focused and forced to prioritize and be strategic about how I’m going to Get Things Done.

I am addicted to To-Do Lists and I quit cold turkey a long time ago, but the cravings are creeping back in. I so badly want to make a list. Studying is done, tests are done, what now? Financial Peace University will be coming up again in January, gotta prepare for that. Natalie needs to be baptized, and her first birthday is coming soon. I just ordered prints of photos of the kids for framing. Bills? Paid. Checkbook? Balanced. Cat litter? Clean. Laundry? Mostly done. Did I floss today? Yup.

So I guess there’s not much for me to worry about now except this: What’s for dinner?
