I handed over all my paperwork only to be told that I ALSO needed to show my marriage license because my last name is not the same name that's on my birth certificate! Good Lord. How discriminatory towards women! Because I am married and took my husband's last name nearly 40 years ago I have to go back to the DMV with all that paperwork PLUS my marriage license. I felt like screaming. But there you go - bureaucracy. Ugh.
Tomorrow David and I have to go to a tax something or other to file our taxes. I really hope I can get to bed a little earlier tonight. I'm sooo tired.
I had to do that to get my library card! It took more paperwork to get my library card than it did to get my license But I didn’t get a REAL license. It’s only good for driving I can’t use it to get to Canada or board a plane. For that I have to get the REAL license and that was even more paperwork.  So I either need to carry a passport ( more paperwork) or all my important papers with me to drive into Canada! Geez when I was a kid the border was open.
My therapist cancelled our appointment for the second time in a row. I don't know why she doesn't just retire. She's 71 and frequently cancels or takes time off.
Alas, here I go to sweep and mop the floor.
