Today is his Chief's (E-7) test. It wouldn't be so nerve wracking if he wasn't going for a perfect 80. He only has to have around a 56 or so to make board. He got a 78 point something last year. Ya gotta love the perfectionist in him!!! When he passes this test, his record will go to the board for evaluation. From there, they select the new Chiefs. The board isn't until June, and we won't know if he makes Chief until early August. It is such a long processes and the waiting sucks! This is his year. It has to be. He had an evaluation that would be hard to beat and my jaw would hit the floor if this isn't his year! Anyways....fingers crossed for him :)
Yesterday, I hit the gym for a few miles on the treadmill. I ran 2 straight miles, which was good. I think one day a week I am going to run at least 3 miles without walking, and the rest I will force myself to run 2 without walking. Of course, I will up the distance as I improve. I am aiming for 3.5 miles per run day and will up that .25mi per week or two.
That ricken fricken blister on my right arch is back. It is the same one I took 10 days off for in December to let heal. I had a bit of a callus going, and now there is a blister under it. The thing is 2in X 1.25in. Ouch. The problem is, my right arch fell a bit after my compartment syndrome surgery and that is why I have problems with blisters on that arch. Good times.
