Yay! Well done, Scott.
That's great news.

Poor kid is terrified to drive our van LOL.
The car he did his driving class in was a smaller one. The first time he drove on the highway in his class, he had to pull over as he felt like he needed to throw up. The second time he drove his instructor said he was much more relaxed and did quite well. He has had his permit now for almost a week and still hasn't drove. I guess he'll do it when hes ready.... but it wont be in the next few days as we're iced in here in Oklahoma!!!!! ;)

gosh... iced over in Oklahoma. Hard for me to imagine although I've never been there. That'd be a rare event would it??
Keep safe!

Hi Lara!!!!!

nah.... ice is pretty common in the winter here. but we only get it like maybe once or twice during the winter, and people here do NOT know how to drive in it.

Someone in Kansas couldn't drive on it. Nasty sight of a semitrailer (I forget what you all call them over there... like a huge long truck with many wheels) hanging off the side of a bridge. :eek:

I had to smile when I read your post in social chat. When they showed the footage from different states this morning, they showed children in Oklahoma sliding downhill very fast on their toboggans. Looked as if they were having very hard landings when they finally rolled off at the bottom so they could stop. They were all rosy-cheeked, wet and grinning. lol

keep warm, keep safe.

ok gooofy..you tell that tall son of yours...no driving down to texas to pick up tall girls. :p

LOL... trust me... at the rate hes going... he wont be driving anywhere any time soon :rolleyes: he has his eyes on a girl that he went to Jr high with. Its kind of cute actually...hes so shy when it comes to the girls...:D

I remember i got my permit first week in january... my mother forced me to drive every day that winter, especially when there was a storm... All i can say is, thank god she did, because when it came time for me to take my driving test, it started hailing about five minutes into it. If it weren't for all that practice driving in the snow/rain etc... i never would have passed, as about ten minutes into the test i was coming down a hill one way and couldnt stop at the intersection at the bottom, and the fellow coming in from the side couldn't stop either... we came within a foot of each other. The instructor must have been impressed with my ability not to freak out, and/or get us killed, as she nixed the last 30 minutes of the test, told me i passed and to just get us back to the dmv alive.....

Congrats to scott on his permit...
