A little nervous but I've been carrying concealed around the house since taking the course so it was pretty comfortable and went quite well (which means, neither my wife, nor the sheep around us, nor any potential wolves around had any idea they were in the presence of a sheepdog).

God bless Texas!

What's interesting is that mine went to "Processing" almost a month sooner than yours, but yours got issued first. Weird, huh?
