My daughter has a court date on Thursday at 8:30am for not having her car tag within the 30 day allotment. Now, it was partly my fault, because we were in the middle of moving, the husband and I were talking divorce, and meanwhile, I was trying to get the address changed on her driver's license online to reflect the new county that we had moved to. I kept waiting for her license in the mail, and it never came. I kept thinking that it wouldn't necessarily be legal for us to go back to the old county and get her tag, so I waited a little longer for her license (you have to have it to prove you live in the particular county you are registering your vehicle in)...Well, during this waiting period, my daughter got pulled over. So, the very next day we went and registered the car in our old county (right or wrong). The day after she received a ticket, I received a notice from the DMV that her license couldn't be processed online. It took them 3 weeks to get back to me, and I was checking the mailbox daily for her license. I am not sure if they will drop the ticket or not.
I really don't want to go to court with her. I am trying to get her to start doing things on her own (especially in light of the fiasco above). I am going to wait for her to ask me...but I reaaally want her to do this one own her own. HOWEVER, I have already tried to talk to her about what she might need to take with her to court, and she was too "busy" with her boyfriend to think about it...so, I might be too busy to go to court (yeah, whatever! I am sure I will have to go).
Bottom line is that she is talking to one of her friends about getting an apartment. Now, she needs to be able to do most things on her own if she is going to move out. I mean, I will alway be here for her, but she needs to start relying on me less for things that she can take care of on her own. I have shown her how to check her bank account online, but she never checks.
Maybe, all this has to do with me being nervous and anxious about court. I dont want to be uncomfortable, and I just dont want to get up that early!!! DAMN motherhood. It is a never ending job.
I think I may have pms.

Car tags and me never get along. Me and my license plate don't even talk anymore. When I get into the car in the morning, I look over and just as I'm about how he's doing, he just stares at one of the turn signals. Yeah, like I don't get it...stupid license plate.
