Today...was just another day off from work...and I figured since we have lived here for over a year and a half, that I should try to go and get my driver's license...AGAIN!...I say, AGAIN, since this was the FOURTH time I have made the trip to DMV.
You see...I evidently need more proof....The first time, my birth certificate (with my feet stamped on it) was NOT the correct one....trip 2...not the correct MARRIAGE certificate that shows my maiden name/first married name/present name all linky-do'd together...
The 3rd time...was NOT the charm......I am thinking I remember THAT day, that the waiting room was totally filled with a gazillion others....WAITING...and I have never been a good waiter!
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo...TODAY.....WAS the day.......NOT!
The proof of residency, only had my hubby's name on it (somehow the marriage certificate did not linky-do enough for that)......"do you work?"...the sweet lady behind the desk says.....Yes....."So, you can call your work and have them fax over proof of your address and that will do"........Er....evidently having NO idea what THAT would entail....
Soooooooooooooooo ...I left...again....with no UPDATED drivers license..Thank goodness, my OLD one from Tennessee is still good for another 10 months.......Perhaps I will make it back over to DMV before then....wish me luck!
OK.....Rant over...venting finished......Now off to my HappyPlace...creating something FUN!!!
creative blessings,

Sounds like the California DMV.... Maybe next time.
Sounds like you are having a great time getting your drivers license. I had a little surprise when I got my Birth Certificate and found that my name was spelled differently than what I had been spelling it for the last 60 some years. Had to get it amended and that took 3 months so glad that I had started on the paper work early. Good luck next time you go.
I looked where you lived and it said South Carolina and I said to myself
"well, that's why!"
South Carolina is the only state I know of that lets a person with DOCUMENTED dementia sign legal papers!
Better luck next time, or, it may be easier to move!
