🎆 I’m Back… and I’ve Got Fireworks
Let’s just say I didn’t mean to ghost my blog. One minute, I was knee-deep in red, white, and blue décor for our annual Fourth of July bash, guest list in one hand, a list of who's bringing what for food.
The next minute, I was in line at the DMV🙄 , sweating bullets😥, clutching my paperwork like it was the last roll of toilet paper in 2020.
Yep, life happened. And it happened loudly, as always.
During party planning, and making sure the yard didn’t look like a jungle, I somehow scheduled my CDL knowledge test. (I am going to be a bus driver) I studied like it was finals week and I was chasing a scholarship...online quizzes, late nights, more Google searches and you tube videos on air brakes than I’d care to admit. I was soooo ready.
But the DMV said, “Not so fast.”
Apparently, knowing the answer to every question in the driver’s manual isn’t enough. I was missing my marriage certificate and a second piece of mail with my name on it. Because obviously, what says “responsible driver” more than a Comcast bill? What else do they want?! My firstborn!!!!???
So that’s where I’ve been. Taking time off from writing, not because I ran out of stories, but because I was busy living them. And now, I’m back; possibly with a vengeance, definitely with more blog posts brewing, and absolutely with a fresher perspective on patience, paperwork, and parties.
Let’s catch up soon. I’ve got tales, tangents, and maybe a few tips for surviving the DMV.
