Will she ever get to drive?????

I know, still no pictures. (it's coming soon, really)
On to the reason for the blog... My crazy teenager will be 16 in May, and so means a DRIVERS LICENSE!!! I think most parents get a little nervous about their children behind the wheel of a moving death trap, but me and her dad can't get the darn thing fast enough. Well i guess not fast enough because she could have had the permit in Nov. but with the holidays we just put it off. So we get the drivers ed done (online, don't you just love that) and enroll her in drivers training,and off to the DMV we go!! she studies kinda, and misses 13 on her first time through. What, who misses 13!! (you can only miss 8 and pass). Now we have to wait 1 week to go back and retest. Back to the DMV for the 2nd time, more studying, slow down, take your time, dont rush through it, it's not timed or anything, read each ? carefully, double check your answers. She did better, this time she only missed 10!!!! Are you serious? We now get to go back to the DMV again, I think they will know us by name before this is over. Her theory is if she misses 3 less each time we go in she will pass this week!! Wish us luck, lucky #3 on Friday. (should we as parents now be less eager to get her out on the road?)
What do you think?
How many times did it take you to pass your test to get your learner permit?
I'm dieing to know if my daughter is the only one who can't seem to get this darn thing.
Drive happy!! And look out for my crazy teenager!!

I did it too!!






Hey...this is the 'crazy teenager,' daughter of the 'crazy fitness instructor.' mom was cool with me blogging, too!! so, i take full responsibility for the twilight craze around where we live, due to the fact that i read it in seventh grade. lets just say I've been in love with Edward Cullen ever since... i mean this quite literally.
See? Anyway...being the ONLY cheerleader that likes reading books can be a total drag... if anyone has any book suggestions...PLEASE tell me. so, now that i have blogged my blog and begged for more book ideas, now what should i do? I know...I'll read another book and dream of Edward Cullen.

OK! I finally did it!!!

OK all ready! After many people found out that I stalk blogs but don't actually have one, they told me that it's about time I have one of my own so they can stalk me back. So here it goes. Blogs are like the book Twilight! You either love them or hate them. With me it was the same way with both. It took me years to read the 1st book Twilight. My teenager read them when she was in 7th grade (let's just say that was a while ago) and begged me to read them with her. And I didn't. It's the same with the blog. So here we are up a running both with the books and the blog. Does this mean I now have to get a good camera so I can take pictures of everything? My favorite blogs are those with pictures, (maybe that's way I didn't read the books, they don't have pictures).
