Seems other applications sent about the same time all ready have
plastic in hand. Should I worry, or am I just being to impatient?

Email. I did snail mail the form given to me after I took the class. Every thing else was done online.

I did my renewal online application around Feb. Took the renewal class Aug 10th and mailed in the paperwork to Aug 12th. Got my delivery confirmation card on the 17th, but it was stamped that they received it on the 15th. Just checked this morning and it shows that my license was mailed to me...so it only took 18 days!! Not bad considering it took almost 60 days for my initial license back in 2008.
