Driver license renewal--what state?

Started by Momma Bear. Last reply by Anna May 9. 11 Replies

My daughter's driver license expires next month. She is leaving Great Lakes soon and will be in Pensacola for about two years. After that, who knows! But it's pretty certain that she won't be stationed in her home state, in the land-locked…Continue

Liz'smom, I'm sorry to hear that.  My sailor had them in both legs in BC, they pushed her through and when she got to A school they were so bad, they had to but her in air casts 24/7!  she was in a wheelchair for A school, C school crutches....they asked 2 seperate doctors, 2 seperate times if she wanted a medical discharge.  She said He!! No!  lol  if she follows their suggestions she'll be fine.  Prayers going out for her (and you)

 

Anna, glad you made it safely.  enjoy the weather hope you don't get these storms over that way.

Good Morning Everyone!!!  Made it safely to Ohio.  Probably won't be on too much since there is no internet at my Dad's place and I'll be spending much of my time there cleaning and getting ready to put it on the market.

Liz'smom,

So glad you heard from your daughter and you at least know what is going on.  They will help her heal and strengthen her legs.  Praying for speedy and complete healing!!!  Then she'll be able to move on to bigger and better things!!!!  Hugs to you both!!

evetnaz,

I agree with all the info you got here!!  We are Moms - we look out for our children - I don't care how old they get, they still come to us for advice so let hubby know you are just showing support and guidance to your daughter and all of us Navy Moms have done the same thing!!!!  When they are in bootcamp they can be so intimidated sometimes that they don't get to ask the questions they want so as not to bring attention to themselves.  So to have these matters taken care of before they leave then they don't have to do it in bootcamp!!!  Follow your instincts, they are all good!!!!!

Sharla,

My husband and I kept our Navy Federal accounts long after we got out of the Navy.  We've been members for over 30 years.  We do much of our stuff online or by mail if we have to send in deposits.  Yes, it's inconvenient sometimes because we don't have a branch to go to but it's never caused a major problem.  If we are ever some place long enough then we open a local bank account for cashing checks and such, but we haven't needed to do that in over 4 years.  The best thing about keeping our NFCU accounts is the low interest rates we get on some of our loans!!!

Hope everyone else is doing good!!!  I'm off to do some cleaning!!

Liz's mom. Glad to hear you got to talk to your daughter. But this is only a bump in the road. Hoping for a speedy recovery. I know though that she (and you) feel frustrated at this set back. Hang in there. Hugs

Awww Liz's mom, so sorry to hear that she has a stress fracture and won't be running for a bit....but very happy you did hear from her. I know just hearing each other's voices was a big boost!  Praying for a speedy recovery and that she can keep her spirits up....she will realize just how strong she is and will be able to accomplish anything that is thrown at her!

Good Morning to Everyone.

evetnaz,  my daughter used her debit card from her bank here at home (my name is also on it)  then when she got there (BC) they had everything she needed to get set up.  She did sign over POA, but she went staright to the Middle East.  Tell hubby it's not being clingy, it's being Responsible and knowing her wishes.  She was there for 2 yrs. and then went to Japan for 21/2, so it came in handy.  Now even tho she's in the states, she signed another one because I have her car etc.....My daughter does all her own taxes and things when she can, buyt if she's "out" and her tags come do?????   She'll send me e-mails buy nephew b-day present or christmas.....again let her lead you and listen, really listen with your heart.

 

Sharla,  I think everything is done on line.  Not me!  I have a card to use, but usually just use her home town bank, I'm more comfortable with it and when it gets low on funds I send her a message, Need money.  LOL  what a difference then when they were teenagers and living at home and asking us for money.

 

windy and rain yesterday brought in the warm weather woke to 65!  suppose to get to 82 today WOW - Spring.
