Permitted to drive part 2

I just realized I had never updated about getting my permit, so please permit me to inform you! ;) I guess it was March 12th when I went to go get my permit. I got there, and then realized that I had absolutely NONE of the papers I needed to bring. (SS, Birth Certificate Etc.) They said that they could not see me until I had them, so we left. Several days later we went again, and they said I needed another paper that they had not mentioned. (The guy said it, and then made some lame comment about forgetful sisters. I mean who in the world was he talking about? (tee hee!) And it had to be mailed to me. ;( arrghh! The third time I realized I did not have my glasses and I could not pass the eye test, but thankfully they let me take all of the other tests and just come back for that one. ( I only got two questions wrong!! WHOO HOO!) I went back yesterday (fourth time) and FINALLY FINALLY got my permit! ;) I believe I earned it. Four tries to get your permit, and you get to known the people working there, and they know you! Man, some of those people there are just..... What's the word?? Country, and funny! (I guess that would be coununny)

Anyways, HAPPY WEDNESDAY!!

Books, and driving

Edit:

******I PASSED!!!******

Today was my VERY first day of In car! I was nervous when I first started, but I got a lot less scared after I had been driving awhile. I did it from 10:30-1:30. 3 hours a day for two days. So tomorrow will be my last day! YAY!! Then I can get my permit.

I was very glad that I had had some driving experience with my Dad. He took me to a parking lot not far away from our house, and let me drive around, and work on parallel parking, U-Turns, signals, backing up & parking. My teacher is really nice, and put me at ease.

On my previous post about Ebay, I mentioned getting an Essentially Lilly book, and an Ina Garten cookbook. Well I also ordered and received the Kate Spade Occasions, Style, and Manners books. All of them in a set for $20. (and shipping) If I had bought each one by its self and not from Ebay it would have been about $60 and tax. I saved about $40!! Yay!

They are such cute books, loaded with good advice, and I would advise looking into them! They also have great sketches.

I get so excited when I buy books. They are so much fun to buy and look at. My collection is really colorful!

My headbands also came in the mail. I. Love. Them. I would definitely go and buy some from Ebay if I was you. They would make a great gift! They are homemade, but look store bought, and they are made with Lilly fabrics!! I think the ladies username is Marinas Closet. happy Shopping!
