I passed my written test with flying colors.  I knew you’d want to share my joy!  Most of my life is spent giving tests to my kids, so when Mom aces one, she celebrates.  Usually at Starbucks.  After studying for 3 1/2 hours - yes, folks thought that was overkill, “after all, Denise, how many years have you been driving?!?!?” - but the last time I got too confident before a driver’s exam, I missed too many and I knew I didn’t want to go back to the DMV and have to do it all over again this time, after waiting in lines a mile long (can anyone say “AMEN”!), not to mention, taking the time to look presentable for the photo - you gotta live with that mugshot for nearly a decade, you might as well have make-up on. Sooooo…..I read/highlighted/re-read that book, consulted with hubby and spent an entire afternoon, because IT HAD TO BE DONE!  Boy was I glad I studied.  Do YOU know how many feet you can ride in the bike lane before taking a right turn?  Do you know the appropriate time to drive with your parking lights?  Do you know the speed to drive while approaching a railroad crossing with low visibility?  See?  Tricksy.  Very tricksy.
