B&B Happy Goats....journal

I renewed my license since we moved here. The letter I got said to bring all these forms for ID, then the lady didn't even ask for them. How do I know if I got an enhanced DL or not?

I will just say this....I don't care about flying, crossing the border with any other country, or being herded and "branded" by any state or federal gov'ts....right now we are caught up in a huge snafu with all this garbage in trying to get Joyce a DL here....they refuse to accept her Ms DL and deny her a FL DL....the specific "details" will not be posted, so no need to ask questions that I will not answer.....just because it isn't an "issue" for some....doesn't mean it is for others....and if ya can't live without traveling by plane or thru other countries, then ya have to jump thru the "hoops"....but, for a lifelong citizen that has lived here with no intention of participating in the foreign "ventures"....it is absurd....and yes, as a truck driver I have crossed both northern and southern borders and had a tremendously difficult time getting back into my own country....not a very good feeling....but, it is only gonna get worse....so, ya best be ready to "face" it, cause it ain't gonna change....no matter who is president or in congress....

I just looked at my DL, it has the star on it.

I carried the requested proof and the lady just waved it away. We went to the next county to renew and as the county we live in, the office there is a madhouse. The next county over is much smaller population wise and the office was not crowded at all.

Just pick a county that is not heavily populated and go there.

As are you. I don't think you have to do anything special to renew the "Real ID" license, just to get it in the first place.

If they didn't even ask for the information, they are failing at their jobs. I guess it is a joke to those DMV employees. Kinda makes the whole "Real ID" thing very UNreal.

To me it looks like a white star in a gold circle, but yes they refer to it as a gold star. I'm pretty sure the gold star on the paper was gold when I did well in school WAY back

I approve of not asking for extra info when getting your real ID. When we did ours it took 4 hours because of what wasn't and WAS required for a married woman with her husband's sir name, who had just moved, with crazy kids in a judgmental snobby RMV office. We did it, but they like hoops.

That is a long time. I had to have documentation and they asked a lot of questions but other than the wait time before, it was probably only 10 minutes tops.

Our home county is a nightmare in any gooberment office. For social security, we go 3 counties away. Our one experience here was dismal.

B&B the "new and improved" license is coming at you like a freight train, I wouldn't wait until the last minute. It will be nuts.

I told my neighbor if the owners come looking for the turkeys to call me and send them to my fence and I will deal with it. ...and if they don't come looking, they will be in my freezer by Monday.....

That's exactly what I should do with the four male ducks that have adopted me....


I'm all about friendliness - but not so much about freeloaders!
