    I got my driving license yesterday (at almost 40 yo). My dog is fine, she has conjunctivitis, has a treatment and is right as rain again. I drove to work for the first time today, shortening my commute time from close to 1 hour to 15 minutes. I’m happy.

      I’m also on the same road. I’m older than you even, but I got so sick of public transport… I can’t take it anymore. Delays, people being loud, people smelling, all that wasted time traveling, etc etc.

      I need a car. I hope in 2 months. :)

        Oh I understand 100% ! Hanging a car is so life changing for me, living in the countryside it’s so much more simple now. When I lived in the city, it made no sense, now than everything is 45 minutes in bus away, with buses every hours when I’m lucky… I’ll be thinking about you, good luck !!! 🤞

          Thank you, I’m really excited about it. I know it will improve my life so much :)

          I enjoy driving too so I will probably just go for random drives a lot once i get a license. :)
