Week 13 & Skid Pan updates

Week 13 was a little rough, but it's done. The juniors reported on Monday and Jay's class thought that would mean a little bit less attention on them, but it didn't really turn out to be the case. Part of that was brought on by themselves, because whenever a few people do something dumb, the whole class pays. Well, on Monday more than a few people messed up (like, 1/2 the class), and therefore they were all restricted Wednesday night. It was such a bummer! Jay was frustrated because he was not in the 1/2 that messed up, but he still had to be restricted. We both made it through the week, though, even though it made it much longer than normal. I've really come to depend on our Wednesday night IKEA dates.

Jay's class also had their second PFT (Physical Fitness Test) on Tuesday. Jay made some great improvements from his first PFT during Week 1, however, they still have one more run to do so the test is not yet complete. Until that run is over, Jay won't know if he's off of double PT. He's only a few points away from getting off of it, so he's optimistic.

The rest of the week was extremely busy with homework and studying and tests and PT and preparing for their AI "report for grade." Oh, and let's not forget about night classes! They have night classes every day except Wednesdays and Fridays for the next 6 weeks or so. Yikes! It's going to make finding time for everything else very difficult, and it shortens our nightly chats to boot.

But let's focus on some GREAT news.... on Monday the 7th, Jay passed Skid Pan! Whoo hoo! We are all very relieved and proud. Now we can start stressing about the High Speed Course....
