Being a mom is a big job full of responsibilities and requirements.

Our family expects as to be: a chef, a nurse, a maid, an event planner and of course taxi driver among other things.

As a mom of two busy boys I am always on the road. In the winter it’s hockey practices and hockey games. In the summer it’s baseball, golf and soccer.

With summer holidays quickly approaching we will spend lots of time driving around and exploring.

Usually this is my husband’s job , but since he works out of town I will have to rely on myself to show my boys good time this summer.

I was not looking forward to this since I am not the best at finding addresses and places. Sometimes I would drive by place two or three times till I realize I am there and then I can’t find the way to get in.

Talk about waste of money and time. Never mind the frustration.

Few months ago my husband bought himself a GPS. I never thought I would like it, but I was wrong.

I took it for a test drive and I was hooked.

My husband’s GPS uses NAVTEQ technology and maps.

NAVTEQ is the company whose technology and maps drive most of the in-car navigation systems and the leading brands of GPS-enabled devices in the U.S., so chances are yours is one of them.

Important thing in owning and using GPS is to keep it updated with newest routes and updates.Otherwise it is waste of time. Luckily, NAVTEQ makes it very easy.All you have to do is go to www.updateyourmap.com for the newest updates.

With one simple update you will get more then 100,000 points of interest, most convenient gas stations, nearest ATMs, restaurants and everything you need to enjoy your summer.

So be smart this summer and save your money and your sanity. Make sure to update your GPS before you hit the road.

Updating it’s very easy. Just go to www.updateyourmap.com and follow the drop-down menus which correspond to the built-in system or portable device. Installing updated navigation maps takes just minutes.

If you are busy mom like me your job just got little bit easier.

How much time do you spend in your car driving around?

Now imagine having updated GPS. How much time do you think you could save every week?

Take it from me. Your GPS will be your new best friend.
