Studied hard, gathered the required items and leave the house around 11:30. Arrive at DPS office just after 12. Take a number please...#55. Now serving # 46. Waiting. Waiting. Listening to others go through the questions. SS number was asked multiple times. Hmmmm...I do not think I have that. Ok. What now? I asked and the clerk said that we could go to the Social Security office to get a form. Allrighty. Leave for that journey and take a number- 64. Should have enough time. Down tothe SS office. Take a number please. 124 of 127. Not too bad. Wait, wait...finally our turn. Bingo! Success! Drive back to the office- hungry, but no time to go back to see if they have already passed our number. Now serving #67. UGH!! Take a new number, go get lunch. #80 this time....hurry! Back from lunch- they are on #70. Going slow. A low rumble of complaints about their speed escolated as one lady kept leaving to perform driving tests. Negativity is infectious. I wanted none of it. Finally it was our turn! We got to the front, spoke with the clerk, and within minutes we were seperated because Hannah was testing. She looks nervous....don't maintain any eye contact....finally done! Score- 27/30!!! Passing!! She didn't drive home, but we were able to finally leave. Whew!!! Can't think yet about the acutal driving exam!
