Hello! It's been a while but I do want to update.
Chad enjoyed his Christmas break. He did his "88" ride and passed! He did his solo and did great! Now he's getting close to his first Check Ride (which is very hard). He has a instrument SIM and a flight today.
I am on my 3rd interview for the same job and should know if I got it very soon. I've been knitting like crazy, I guess because I'm bored. I made a pair of socks and it was so exciting! Oh, my birthday was earlier this month and it was great :) The wives here on base surprised me with a cake and card. My family came up and ate Japanese with me. I got some great gifts! and I'm getting old :) Keep Chad in your prayers... He needs lots of them!
