What to do While I Wait for my iPad?

This time of year is an interesting time for me. My husband and I are celebrating  our  22nd anniversary on the 26th of April (today).  May 4th is my birthday (48 years) and May 9th is Mother’s day. Within a couple of weeks it is the “trifecta of fun” for me.

22 years of marriage is a big deal! I love my husband a lot!  Where has the time gone? We actually got married in St. Thomas. It was very romantic! Some day we are going back!

48 years of being on the planet is also a big deal. I am proud of where  I am. And speaking of being proud, I have 4 very cool kids! That’s worth celebrating on Mother’s day! I have so much to be thankful for!

So this year, my wonderful husband decided to give me a big gift to commemorate this trifecta and get all three done at the same time.  He told me to get an iPad for myself! I was so excited! But then I found out that I could not walk into a store and buy it. I could only order it! So I did just that. I went to www.apple.com and put in my order!

Now it is a waiting game! It should be here before Mother”s day. I know that there are some people out there (you know who you are) who already have one. I am looking for advice!

Here are my questions:

• What apps should I get?
• Which apps are a waste of money?
• What is the best case to keep it protected?
• What are some unexpected uses you have discovered?

Please send me your comments! It will help me pass the time.
