Will two weeks matter ????
I have received green card March 2002, left the country for German language courses in Europe for February 2003 for approx (6,5 months ) returned in September 2002 and stayed in US for the rest of the time.
I have language certifications from Austria. Do you think I will have problem when I will be applying for citizenship in 8 months? Will language courses qualify as proof that I did not abandon my residency in US permanently? I have maintained my bank and credit card statements but I did not have any lease or insurance while I was out of the country. Will these extra 2 weeks ruin my chances of applying for citizenship sooner?

The burden is on YOU to prove that you did not break the continuous residency requirements for naturalization.
You shoudl bring everything : tax returns filed as a resident, bills, rent , paystubs, ... Unfortunately, you will only know at the interview. You are in the gray area : 6m< trip< 1year. In the event you get denied, you loose a couple of hundred dollars, but you can still reapply when you are eligible.
