well i finally solo'd...so heres my happy post...all the whining and worrying was worth it!!! i can't wait to do more solo's ...i went to the airport at 6am winds calm ovc 3600 then as soon as i got out on the ramp the winds seemed to come out of nowhere and i had a slight crosswind..i wasn't as nervous as i thought i would be.. i taxied to 11R called up tower off i went..it was great the plane felt so much better witout my instructor in it all the checklist seemed to come to me easily and the landings were the best i ever had, the gear  touched so softly and smoothly. Thanks to everyone for all the advice and everything else.....it was worth it!!!  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
