To have it pulled? That sounds way out of line.

too many people ask me to do too many different things. I don't know enough and I can't keep anything straight. I am pretty sure I need an increase in meds also. I started crying when someone asked if I had set up a phone meeting yet. That was at 9am this morning and I had no recollection of when the previous request had come in (it was in an email yesterday afternoon that I had flagged, but had not gotten to yet in the never-ending task list).

Daddy tried to teach me how to shift, but it got too frustrating. I only learned manual when Hubby had a dislocated shoulder and couldn't shift as it was healing, so I had to shift as he pushed the clutch. It worked. But he doesn't think I do it right, so he only things I should drive automatic. Which is cool by me, because my knee hates clutches.

He learned to drive a shift when he was in the Forest Service and his boss drove him and an aviation fuel truck onto an active runway, told him a plane was due in 20 minutes, and it was up to him to get the truck off the runway.

typo - that sucks.

msbelle - I'm sorry it is a rough day. I came into the thread to post a MSBELLE IS THE NICEST. Cause you are. And I thank you deeply.

I learned to drive in high school. Automatic transmission - so my dad had to teach me to drive the manual because that's the kind we had. (The following year my high school started teaching manual - sigh.)

I don't recall practicing in parking lots or anything - but I do remember my father teaching my mother to drive and her practicing in the field at my grandmother's farm.

Sending you love and hugs, msbelle.

Aw, msbelle.

I just found out I have to go sign my lease at 11am next week. Super annoying! They only do it ever between 10am and 2pm. Honestly, I would take the whole day off work except it's our ice cream social! Hee. But anyway, this lady at the landlord's was like, "Your broker called me... We don't usually call people." Um, what do you mean? "They usually call us." Right, you mean more than the FOUR VOICEMAIL MESSAGES I've left you over the past two weeks, including ONE THIS MORNING. Right. Argh.

today is not even that frustrating, it's my complete inability to deal with a solid day's work. I need days to flake off.

Thanks y'all. I hope the nanny/helper thing will help ease some of this non-sense in my head.

Yeah, $1000 to get it pulled seems very unreasonable!!

My dad tried to take me to learn to drive on some back roads near his parents' farm, but I nearly drove us into a ditch and he gave up. I took driving lessons after that--scarily, they just had us start on the suburban roads near the school, bam. But I survived

I ran a red light every time I drove a car in driver's ed. YAY!
