I awoke at 8 am this morning from a not-so-restful night of sleep (it felt kind of like Christmas Eve when I was little, except not really at all). I brushed my teeth, dropped in some contact solution, grabbed my computer from where I had stored it, battery fully charged, next to the bed, and settled into the Colorado Board of Law Examiners website. And so my morning began this way.....refresh....refresh...refresh....refresh....
Then I started getting e-mails: "Hey, are we supposed to get Bar results today?"
YES. YES WE ARE.
Refresh.....refresh.....refresh.....refresh.....
9:16 am:
"Hello, Board of Law Examiners. Can I help you?"
"Yes. Are July results going to be posted today?"
"Yes, but we aren't sure what time. We're waiting for the Supreme Court."
"OK, thanks. Because I didn't want to waste my day pressing 'refresh' for no reason."
"No problem. Goodbye."
9:17 am:
Bzzzzzz......
When I glanced down at my cell phone, I had received a text from a friend and fellow Colorado Bar taker that read: "Congratulations!" Hmmmmm......
While I took that to mean I had passed, I obviously checked for myself. Celebration is on hold until Bret gets home from some meetings at school. (Elsa is surprisingly unenthused.)
It is an odd feeling after months of studying and weeks of waiting (not so) patiently. Such an immense relief.
Thank you so very much for all of your thoughts and prayers over the past few months! Please keep them coming as we strive to find the path that our lives are meant to follow.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! I had total faith that you would knock it dead, and you most certainly did. Way to go, and now you get to be Jaimy, Esq. :) Best relief ever, isn't it?
Congrat's! We, too, had faith. But, we're happy you finally know for sure.
