Emily in England

Hey Hey! Welcome to the wild world of Emily. You can come here and check me out living in "Her Britannic Majesty's realm of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland"! That title for the UK is a direct quote from a good friend who's a bit particular about how one addresses his beloved country.

Driving Update!

To date I've had 3 driving lessons and stalled the car innumerable times! But all in all I think I'm really coming along quite well. I drove with a friend to a church youth event tonight and stalled 3 times I think, maybe 4. The hardest part is getting going, which is why I stalled only 3 times. Because we're out in a farely rural area, I don't actually have to come to a full stop too often, if I did it would be a whole other story!! I haven't actually attempted to go out on my own just yet. I'm a bit worried about stalling on a hill and not being able to get going again!! Hill starts are really hard and Cumbria is ALL hills. Course if you've ever driven a manual you already know all this, so feel free to laugh as I'm sure you can relate. Well for those up for a laugh I think I'm going to keep a running tab on my stalls...so until next time, if you're in northern England, stay off the road!

Hey Em,
Hanging out at Moody for computer access... :-) Good to hear you're still at it with the driving thing. You'll get it soon. It's a piece of cake! And I can talk....? because I can't drive a stick? Oh well. I'm still sure you'll be a master in no time. I made it back alive from my stint as a mommy. All's good and well. I was thankful to have a completely uninterrupted night of sleep last night. I'll have to send you the full story in an email. Praying for you, girl!
