Morning CoSo 🙂 A grey start to the day here. I hope you are all well.

Good morning Mandy! We had a successful trip to the DMV yesterday, so now I get to start teaching Minimac #2 how to drive. That's a nerve-wracking process. We'll start with a big empty parking lot somewhere...
@janallmac Morning 🙂 Good luck with that. I paid for lessons out of my part-time job which was much better for family relations - the one time I drove my mother in a car when I was learning she was so panicked (for no reason) that I stopped the car, got out and walked home. The next time I drove her I had passed several years and had to use her car to drive her somewhere as she had a broken collar bone. 😆
@Mandypar
Yup. Relatable! My oldest is still mad at me for "screaming" when I was teaching him to drive.
He did things like looking straight at me while driving forward. 😱
Thankfully, he's a good driver now and never got to the point he actually left the car, but I'm certain he'd agree with your actions and tell you all about how much I would scream and Mom-arm him.
I try to restrain myself. I do.
@janallmac lol 😆 🤣 ✊ solidarity for children whose parents didn't cope well when we were learning to drive! (Mum drove me to the MS Therapy Centre here once as my husband couldn't take me - I asked the staff for alcohol or drugs to help me cope with the journey home (they had neither) 😉 )
