“I Can See For Miles And Miles And Miles!”🤗 My Actifit Report Card: May 26 2026

“I Can See for Miles, and Miles, and Miles!”😎
Today was “THE” day……….😅
Silvertop and Liz were up extra early, and heading to our local Department Of Motor Vehicles in town to “TRY” and renew Silvertops Drivers License!😊
Try…..was the keyword here my friends😇
“Appointments only today!”😮
You need to schedule an appointment sir, or drive down towards Seattle, to the next town, and they “MIGHT” take walk in drivers License renewals.”
We were sitting in Bellingham’s Walmart parking lot, already 45 minutes from home, debating if driving another hour to Mt Vernon’s DMV was worth it!🙄
The earliest appointment in our towns DMV was June 30, well past my Birthday on June 12.
I questioned the man at the counter in our town………..
“If I wait till then, I will be driving on an expired license!”🙄
“Yep……. don’t have an accident!”☺️
I had just received notification that I needed to renew “In Person” and no appointments were open before my B’day. They did not allow ample notice of the in person appointment requirement !🤔
Silvertop was being backed into a corner, not of his making, with no way to get out, or any way to fix this problem!🙄
“Liz, I guess we take a chance and drive to the next town, and “Hope” they will take me today!😮
We arrived in Mt Vernon at approximately 10:30 AM and sat…………and sat!
Two hours later, they finally called me up front, Silvertop was stressed!😅
“Look into the viewfinder sir and tell me what you can read!”
“Miss, I just received a new eyeglass prescription and my eyesight has improved!”
“You still need to read the chart sir!”🤔
OK……………😇
Silvertop tried without his glasses that he has been required to wear since he started driving at age 16!
Three blocks of letters were in the viewer…….
I read the left block, I looked closer at the second block and read all the letters. The third block I could not read.🙄
“Sir this is your paper temporary license. Your permanent one will be mailed to you.”
“Liz…. I passed “WITHOUT” glasses!”🤗😍
Silvertop was ecstatic, for the first time since I was 16 years old, I did not need to wear my glasses to drive!☺️
“Silvertop you have approximately 20/40 vision without glasses, that is within the legal requirements!”🥰
“Awesome honey, I feel FREE!”💪🤗
Liz do you want me to drive to Starbucks, “Without” my glasses Lol?”😇
Till tomorrow Silvertop Mike 😊

It really is pretty bizarre, my friend!🙄
And the sad part is we pay taxes for this!!😮😇

DMV is the epitome of governmental bureaucracy, and never a pleasant experience. Congrats on it going so smoothly, my friend, and on your improved eyesight, that's excellent! My eyesight leaves a bit to be desired...lol! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I have been so used to wearing glasses my entire life to drive, it was a pleasant surprise to be able to pass the eye test!😇

Perhaps when someone drinks @tydynrain's superfood fire coffee, he/she won't need to use his/her eyes to safely drive !INDEED (though I'm definitely not saying that someone should drive without using their eyesight)! 🤯😅

I always close my eyes when I drive.....😇🤣

I want to assume that you are referring to simply "blinking" instead of closing your eyes while you are driving (a vehicle on a public road) !INDEED! 🤓🤯😅

!ALIVE

Why not close your eyes when you have supervision Lol!!🤣😇

Do you mean that someone else (beside you) becomes your "eyes" while you drive a vehicle (at the road) !INDEED? 🚗🤯🤯🤯😅

hmmm.......... of course I am legal to drive without my glasses, but I wonder how many people out there that have 20/40 vision are driving without glasses!!🙄

That's amazing, my friend, and of that I have no doubt! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Can't wait for my first drive down the road without glasses Lol!!😇👍😎

Awesome sauce, my friend, let me know how it goes! 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Let's see if Liz wants to be my copilot Lol!!!🤣😇😀

She's your natural co-pilot, my friend, how could she say no?!? 😁🙏💚✨🤙

Lol........ So very true my friend!!!😇🤗😀

That sometimes brings people to the debate whether being (legally) able to drive is a right or a privilege. 🤯

!PIXY

It is a right, and licenses are unconstitutional, as everyone has the right to movement and transportation. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

!UNICOIN

Some of those who oppose that (try to) point out that not requiring licenses (both for people and for vehicles) can be dangerous for the driver, any other passenger, and other people outside the vehicle. 🤯

People must take full responsibility for themselves and what they do, a license or lack thereof doesn't change that. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I got reminded of people who said that they complained about certain (licensed) professionals who failed to deliver good services to them, only to find out that while they were "successful" in having the licenses of such professional service providers revoked, they only lost money and time in the process !INDEED. 🤯

!WEIRD !HOPE !WINEX !PIXY

Indeed, a license means nothing, other than perhaps buying into the lie that we need to pay to exercise our inherent rights. 😁🙏💚✨🤙

I have already played a few games where "licenses" in-game (part of the game itself, not those games where you buy only the license and not the full game) are directly said to be unnecessary (or something similar), but then the "government", "council", or whatever powerful in-game "organization" does require them. 🎮🤯🤓

Well that sounds good! I still wouldn't drive without the glasses, better save than sorry :-D Congratulations anyway!

It does make me wonder how many people are on the road that are legal to drive but still don't see very well!!!🙄

I will say congratulations
