Test Day!!

Today is the big day!! Mark will start his first big board test a little after noon! Keep your fingers crossed that he at least passes 4 sections (we'd prefer he pass them all, but we don't want to be greedy!) because then he will at least not have to take the whole thing over. We're hoping that the bizarre grading method they use will be to his advantage rather than his disadvantage.

A short overview of that grading is that they throw out all the questions that everyone gets wrong (sounds good, doesn't it?!?) and all the questions that everyone gets right (that pretty much sucks, eh?!?) and then they take the top person's score and curve it based on that from our understanding so hopefully Mark will know a lot of things that some other people don't!

In other news, MeLissa's started work on another baby blankie...and we're not telling who this one is for either. It is a lovely mint green in the same pattern as the recent patriotic offering. This and finishing up last week's quilt block (as well as the standard weekend errands) should keep her occupied during Mark's testing period. MeLissa also is going to a baby shower for one of her former coworkers and hopes to catch a glimpse of her buddy Alisa who is visiting San Francisco as well.
