The EV newswires have been lighter/slow of late (I do feel like I am scraping both the bottom and the sides of the barrel). If there is a gap/skipped days of no EVLN posts, it may not be my health issues but, there just wasn't anything worth your time. When there are just little short items, as your seen, I just chain them together as one post, so that you can pick and choose which ones you want.
(ot) My status: Today, I succeeded in surrendering my CA drivers lic as I will be getting a TX one in the pomail (Yay!, finally). So, why did it take soooo long. I had to bring to the TX DMV: my paper birth certificate, the actual paper social security card, a paper-printout of my CA vehicle registered as Texan (I now have TX plates), a paper proof of my vehicle insurance switched as to say covered in Texas (though the insurance are still hassling me about the TX address I am living at as it conflicts with what the USPS sez ... odd), and it took what seems like forever to switch two of my financial sources to the TX address and have them send pomail to it as you also need those piece of pomail as proof you actually live in TX as one of many requirements to get a TX drivers lic if you are not a Texas resident (at some point I was pleading over the phone with those companies as they could not understand that the pomail statement I was asking them to send was what TX DMV wants as proof I do indeed live in TX). The great day I had been waiting for had arrived (so I can get on with what life I have left). I arrived at the TX DMV office when they opened (8a) to find a line of people stretching all way out around the building, and also noticed that I had (old-man) forgotten to bring my folder with all the (above) needed paperwork proof. So, I had to go back and get it. I with many, many others, we waited from 9am to 3pm to be processed (I may have medical issues but, at least I am not diabetic, as I didn't dare not leave to eat lunch else they will mark me as absent - a guy sitting next to a bunch of us 'have-been-waiting-for-hours' old-timers was falsely marked absent = yes, the whole process was a poorly handled mess). When my number finally, ... finally came up, I felt like yelling BINGO! (but I didn't, I didn't want to come off a sarcastic ... and those still waiting wouldn't have appreciated my happy-happy joy-joy). I quite happy to be done and would be receiving my TX drvrs lic (as I was hungry, needed to take my blood-pressure/heart-rhythm medications, and was tired - I needed my afternoon nap). So, now I can connect with a realtor, look over some homes for sale, relocate out of my temporary digs which are way/much too far away from the VA hospital I so depend on (I still have to wait until May for my primary care Dr. appointment - why sooo long? = SOP at that VA hospital). Another good news item, since my 66th birthday is at the end of this month, I have also succeeded in arranging to start receiving direct deposit checks (another Yay! - I have a positive cash flow again). I figure at the end of this relocation to TX adventure, I will be much more settled, and will have traded in my vehicle for what half of the central Texans drive, a big Ol' truck https://img2.carmax.com/img/vehicles/15338074/1/320.jpg with a 'truck dog' in the back https://www.puppyleaks.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/truck.png For EVLN EV-newswire posts use: http://evdl.org/archive/ {brucedp.neocities.org} -- Sent from: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/ _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
