There is a new system for drivers' licenses here in the US...The "REAL ID"...I had to get my DL renewed in February (my appointment, the ONLY one they had before my birthday, was February 13th). So off I went, armed with (1) my birth certificate, my Medicare card, my property tax bill, and a couple other items to prove my residency. Then the clerk asked for my ... marriage certificate! EXCUSE ME? I've been married now for 47 years with ONE NAME. ... sigh... I didn't have it, so I had to get just the regular driver's license and I CANNOT enter a federal building or fly on an airplane until I update my info. Oh, and I was also informed I had to have a duplicate of my Social Security card! WHAT NEXT?
Well, y goodness! So, any MARRIED woman will have to bring in a copy of her marriage certificate. What a bunch of BS. I mean, REALLY. I hardly even remember my maiden name...I haven't used it for so long!
Ohhh....GUESS WHO is out already in one of the bird seeders? I hear his little whimpering song...yup...one of the male grosbeaks!
Okay...back to watching the birds!

ReplyDeleteOh geez, thanks for the heads up! I sure wouldn't have thought to take the Marriage License with me! Just shaking my head....we all have to jump through hoops and the bad guys/gals are still going to be the bad guys/gals doing bad things. What are 'they' going to do next to 'fix' things? Going to give myself whiplash shaking my head so much! :-)
