Did you do some kind of online course? They don't offer it in schools anymore and from what I read you don't even take a physical driving test anymore. Just go throught the course and of course the written test for a permit. I haven't ordered it yet, I need to get on that.

We will just be the shortys together.

It is very different in NC. Students at 15 take a Driver's Ed Written part that is offered in schools. Then at 15 1/2 they are given the in car part of Driver's Ed. They have to complete 20 hours of driving in incar. If they pass both parts then they go to DMV to take a eye test, road sign test and a computer based test. If they pass this they get their Permit. They can keep this for 4 years or in 6 months when they turn 16 they can go for their before 9's DL. Then they take a written and a driving test. If they pass they are given a before 9 (PM) DL. If they go 6 months with out a ticket they can go for their after 9's. At 18 without any tickets or major issues they can go and get an unlimited DL.
 

Remember when I lost my oakley's in the spring? I found the exact pair on ebay last night, I bidded on them. I've been outbid but it's not over until Sunday so I will bid again. I really want them!!! In the description it even says they are for petite faces, that's me. I sure hope I win them.


girl you never bid on ebay until the last seconds!!! NEVER!!! You are only bidding against yourself because some one will bid against you then you get in a bidding war until one of you wins when the auction is over.
 
Sandy and Heidi you all are still in my prayers. Poor Stacey, I can not imagine as a parent what she is going thru!!! Extra special dixie dust and prayers going her way.

Jrsy you crack me up.

Cristi I think you need 2 more kids...I will be glad to send my two paid one way to you.

Marice, I hope your surgery went awesome!!
 
I can not believe in 12 days I will be in LA and getting ready for a cruise that has been almost 2 years in the planning.
 
I did it!!! I can see the words on the monitor without glasses! I did NOT like the pushing my eyeball into my head part though. The laser was nothing. 24 seconds in my right eye and 22 in my left. They had to put a bandage contact on my right eye, it's all bloodshot bad, but they said hopefully they can take it off today when I go. I go in about 30 minutes. I slept so good yesterday. Gotta love the goggles because they are shaded. My room was dark.

Hope everyone is doing okay.

Hey we need an update!!!

I am sure you will soon think it is the best thing you have ever done.
 
I went to the doctor and first they checked my vision. My left eye is 20/20 and my right eye is 20/30 but that was with the contact. My eye was scratched during surgery so it may take a little longer to get to 20/20. She said both eyes should be a little better on the next appt Friday. Then the doctor looked at my scratch. He said the contact could come out so he put numbing drops in my eyes and took a pair of tweezers and removed it. :scared1: Then he put dye in my eye and looked at the scratch and said it was healing nicely. After I left I had to go to Walmart to get the tears, they had given me a sample. So I got a few other things and then I was looking for cakes for Aerial and I started feeling really bad. So I left and went home and took a nap. Then I got up and we went to lunch at jack in the box and I took another nap. So much for worrying about insomnia.
 
I am so excited for you Marcie. Sounds like you are doing pretty good. Too bad about the scratch but at least it is healing nicely. Wish you didn't bring up Jack in the Box. Haven't had that in awhile. Not too many around here.

Selena, would you like me to send you Cosmo. Stupid me, didn't even think about it and I knew you were going on a trip.
 
Marcie - I am glad things went okay for your lasik. I hope the scratch heals quickly for you. Is your eye still red and blood shot?

Selena - I am so excited for you to go on vacation!!! You need it and deserve it!
 
Selena, I know you are excited. You are going to have a blast!!

Thanks everyone. Yes, my eye is still pretty red but it doesn't feel too bad.

Awww you want me to mail you some tacos? Really I wanted to try the new pita snacks. They are wheat pitas. I got the chicken. It was pretty good. I have been having the munchies all day, wanting to eat everything.

Aerial isn't feeling well so she decided she just wants to order a pizza and rent movies for her birthday tomorrow. So, I guess I'm eating bad all weekend. :thumbsup2 :scared1:

I would love him but I do not have room for him. :sad1:

We had pizza last night and Chick fil a for breakfast this morning. Then we have ate what we could find in the house for lunch and dinner.

No, it is all I can do to handle my two. ;) Rachel got mad at us yesterday because we said we wouldn't drop her off at the mall with her friends today. I am not ready for that yet. I thought she would pout all evening, but after dinner she wanted to hang out with me and play games. :)

Yeah Marci!!! I didn't like the eyeball pushing part either. :eek: Now, I can ask this, did you smell any burning? I caught a wiff of smoke when they did mine. :scared1: That was a little freaky. The surgeon told me he had never had anyone else say they had smelled anything. I have a pretty sensitive nose.
 
Smell burning.....oh my goodness. That's a little freaky!

Selena, I sure understand about Cosmo. He is one big MONKEY! And heavy too!!

I did smell it right after the laser went off in my right eye. I didn't smell anything after my left, but I think I was just excited it was over.
