I dedicate this blog to my mates, LWL (ladies who lunch) who started at the same school as FIRST-TIME teachers. Lovely catch up - great communication. And the reason I purchased my TOMTOM. All will be revealed..............
Hi Babyboomers
I haven't made any decisions yet re an I Pad or Android, despite a reply to my technical question, from a friend who has one, "I can't really tell you what's so good about it. I'm in love with my ipad. It makes me happy just to think about it."
But I did make another important purchase. And here it is....... A TOMTOM! Love the name - makes me feel as though it's going to communicate to me how to get where I want to go.
So where do you want to go, Clara?
The answer is. "To where I decide to go." Therein lie choices, not only re destination, but how I want to get there.
OK, so here's the history - Ladies who Lunch - LWL - destination was via a route I chose not to take. I don't do expressways anymore ever since the unfortunate journey via the airport from Artarmon to an address in Artarmon. Well - I got into the wrong lane - then was afraid to go sideways fearing that I would be lost forever.
So, everyone else was still driving out of their comfort zone, except me - which was confronting and cost a lot.
After councelling from the group, when I saw a special deal on the net re TOMTOM, I decided to go for it.
When I told G about it, he said I really didn't need it, because I didn't drive anywhere out of the area. So I said, "The less I drive, the more fearful I become." He understood and is supportive - we had a lesson even, where I drove to IKEA land via GPS and felt good about it. He agreed to shut up re my other driving habits - Yeaaah!
So - TOMTOM has arrived and I need to read the manual. Hmmmmmm
