So it's kind of a long story but right now we have a different car. A stick shift. My dad always planned on teaching me how to drive a manual but by the time I was old enough to drive we only had automatics. I guess I never had an opportunity to learn. Saturday night was my opportunity. I practiced for about half an hour in an empty parking lot. Then yesterday I practiced driving around the neighborhood. Started out just going up and down our street (so what if we live on a cul-de-sac?) and eventually got the guts to drive around on other streets and finally went to the grocery store. Today I drove all the way to Target! There were stops and hills and everything! Ok, let's not get carried away. I'm not the best at it but it's only been a couple of days. I'm pretty proud of myself... if you couldn't tell. Yay for driving!
P.S. Doxey is a good teacher.

I remember when I tried to teach Janelle...talk about brutal...I do not have enough patience for that...HAHA...but it was fun. Congrats on learning how to drive stick...Janelle still needs lessons with an emphasis on the "s" at the end of lesson
