Driving license  – part 6.

May 29th. Reflections from today’s driving. In total 36,11 km. Lot’s of practice on the feedback lately 😊.  Driver with the L in the back of the car, for a good course.  Driving with the thermoses of coffee also svela – a very Norwegian dish/ thicker pancake – around to the charity group during day 3 of Goodness Week in Stavanger.

Private driving Wednesday 29th of May, 3 hours in and around Stavanger.

Private driving 1st of June went much better even if I got lost and didn’t find the right road to drive off to the European motorway at once 🤪. But I managed to read all the signs without stress 😊, even the roundabout went fine today (even if I had lost of pain in my lower back).  I am a bit worried that my back won’t be good enough for the next mandatory part 😔.

I am thankful for my neighbour lady (age 74 that dare to sit beside me and having Saga🐕 in the car, while I’m driving) and thankful for the protection from the Lord! 

Stretching the back and let Saga 🐕 out for a small walk, in Ganddal my living place last year.

Private driving June 4th tunnel practice not so much about how to drive in a tunnel, no the focus was on where will I end up? So I could update my gps in my head. Unlucky I didn’t drive there at all the 7th when I had my 3rd mandatory part, 2nd driving over 2 hours. I had made a plan that would have worked perfectly with my brain but after half of the mandatory driving the teacher asked me how much time we had left – approxy half – so instead of driving where I in mind and be able to stop and eat a bit, the teacher forced me to change my plans, drop out of a break. I drove with the same teacher May 24th and  than it was okay with breaks. I just don’t understand!

Sadly I now, since the last hour of the mandatory driving lesson, have fatigue symptoms. My ADHD doesn’t work well with driving more than 2 hours. I hope it is something I can practice on! But I can’t have a life with fatigue symptoms as soon as I am driving with someone. This driving school teacher also send me unconscious stress – which is the reason I now since approxy 1 am Friday the 7th have had fatigue symptoms 😔. 

Just a picture of Stavanger.

Yet I have to be apart of the last mandatory part tomorrow Monday 10th of June, 3 pm. I feel like someone been driving over my head. And screens (laptop or smartphone) are less good than other things in life right now. Fatigue symptoms 😔.

Perfect weather for driving! June 22nd.

June 22nd. Today I have my last private driving. So today I am going to repeat things I know I can do better, poking on the driving in and around and out of a roundabout and get to know the suburb where the trafic station for the drive-up (or driving tests) starts.

Backed into the parking lot where it is always tight.

Driving license – part 4.

2023 wasn’t a good year of driving after my fall backwards at work in January 😐😒. I tryed to drive but had a lot of pain sitting for more then one hour. And then I was on sickleave in May. Moved in October… Been working or been sick this fall. But I am planing to finish everything with this driving license in 2024. I have a goal 😉 and I am motivated!

February 2024. I had my first private driving the 3rd of February, first in 10months! It went okay. I know what I need to practice on. I need to get a better flow while I’m driving. I need to feel comfy in and before a roundabout! As bigger the roundabout is as more freaking out I get. This hasn’t been an issue before… which I dislike a lot now!

April-24. I contacted my old and first driving school here in Stavanger and asked them about the last mandatory level and when it was possible to start that? Took a driving lesson April 22nd, it went well.

Meantime my plan is to drive as much as possible private until the practical driving test.  The 4th and last mandatory level getting closer 🤩.

I have been blessed with tax money to complete the 🚘driver’s license 😊😊 and because of that  I will start on the last mandatory level in May 10th 🤞😊.
