A couple of months ago, I finally bit the bullet and signed up for driving with a driving school. For work now, I'm currently doing a 4-day work week, so I do all my driving related things on my day off. After my lessons, practices and evaluations, I did my test last week and I passed! W00t!
Of course, by the time I realised that I should start booking my practical lessons, they were already booked up for the next month. So I will only start them in August. If all goes well and I pass on my first try, I hope to get my licence by the end of the year.
I've thought for a long time about getting my driving done. I'd planned to do it last year, but I got pregnant. So the plan got pushed to this year. The trigger that got me to sign up was cos A is changing jobs and he may not be driving to his new workplace. If the car is just going to be sitting around all day doing nothing, I might as well use it. And that's how I got started.
On a related note, I'm kinda glad that A is finally switching jobs, after 4 years of working irregular hours. It wasn't so bad when it was just us, but once Emma came along, having to cope on my own at nights can be challenging at times. Hopefully all this will change with his new job, which should have more regular office hours.
