Hi I know this is off the wall but I feel very proud of myself today. I took my driving test today and I finally got my Driver's license. I have been taking driver's ed all summer and I know I am kinda old but I am so excited that I finally did it.

Congrats, Melinda. I remember when going to Louisianna was more important than your license. Now you get to come and visit with the little ones;~]

I have to get a car first. But God will help with that in time.

CONGRATULATIONS, Mindy! I don't know how old you are; I suspect you're not as old as your post sounds. I was 25 or 26 when I got my license. I had learned to drive my husband's '55 Buick, auto transmission but hadn't got my license yet when he traded it for new Chev. pickup, straight shift. I never DID learn to drive that thing! A few years later, when the pickup became a company car, he asked me what kind of new car I wanted. I told him the only requirement was auto transmission. That's what we got, I got my driver's license and have been driving (auto trans) ever since. Didn't take driver' ed in HS cause I needed all the science, etc. I could get for nursing. Our grand-daughter gets her license this week.

Congratulations, Melinda! I know several people who were older when they got their licenses. It's never too late to learn anything and since I know your mother's age, I know you can't be that old!!!
