Well, I didn't get my permit yesterday. I missed 7. You can only miss 5. So, I'll be studying some more.
Kara and I had two orchestra performances yesterday. I think we did really well. Given that we only had one practice last Friday. Having been off all summer.
After our last performance, we ate at McAlister's. I hadn't been there in a while, so I was happy. It was a long day. A REALLY long day.
So, I am thinking about getting my drivers permit next week. I think I'm ready. I had taken a practice test on the 12th of this month and got 13 out of the 44 problems wrong. I took it again about ten minutes ago and got 7 out of 44 wrong. I'll do the math for all of you and tell you that I got 6 questions more than last time. I don't know when the drivers office is open, but I think that it will be open ether Monday or Tuesday. That's all for right now. Blog Later.
11Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, 12so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody. 1 Thessalonians 4:11-12
