MY TEMPS!

So it's not a new pet or anything, but it's really exciting!

Okay, maybe not all of you will think its as exciting as I do right now, but I passed the Temps test with a 92% (4 wrong) and I got my Temps! I'm so excited! A whole new world has been opened for me! (Watch out world, here I COME!)

This has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders and I can now rest in peace for the next six months, or until my first behind the wheel. Today is a really great day!

To drown out a good day though, my great-grandma passed on Wednesday morning. Rest in peace grandma, I love you! Have fun with your loving husband and may all things be well for you again.

Here is her obituary, I'm going to take out last names for the sake of privacy. I love you Grandma. (My dad is one of the pallbearers, Randy)

I'm sorry to hear about your great grandmother. But, I had a question, what is a temps? Congratulations on such a good grade, but, I have no idea what I'm congratulating you for!

Temps is a nickname for Temporary License. It has certain restrictions, like I can only drive with a parent in the car, etc. Next comes my Probationary license then my regular license.
