I didn’t learn to drive when I lived in Saint John fogville. Well, not really…I did drive here a bit when I was 16, but most of my driving in Canada has been in Manitoba and Alberta. So, now I’m home and keeper of the car keys I’ve discovered that I don’t really have a clue how to get anywhere. I’m one of those people who has to drive a route at least once in order to arrive at the correct destination. Written directions are useless and if someone else is driving, I have no idea where I am. Sure, I can get around the neighbourhood, to the grocery store, pharmacy and bank. But once I cross from the east side into downtown I’ve no clue where I am. Since mom doesn’t drive either, it could be very interesting relying on her to act as navigator. The first real test will be later this week when I need to be directed back and forth to the hospital. We’ll have to wait and see how that turns out. News at 11 (atlantic, 10 eastern, 9 central, 8 mountain [hi honey], 7 pacific).
