When I started working in Fernando de los Ríos School I used to walk to the school every day. But when my son went to study there, I got used to driving to school every morning. I used to love walking. Now I am used to driving to school. .However I couldn’t get used to leaving earlier than before. Maybe, if my son hadn’t gone to study there, I wouldn’t have got used to getting up earlier and driving to school every morning.
When I came to live a Ronda, I used to go everywhere on foot.
When my son was born I was already used to walking, so I continued with the routine, carrying to my son in the baby cart.
Once my son grew up and stopped using the baby cart, I got used to using the car, as it was more complicated for me to walk long distances with a small child.
Now that I'm used to driving, I do not usually go on foot anywhere.
Maybe, If I hadn´t had a car, I wouldn´t have got used to his comfort.
I have made two mistakes in the first and last sentences. I am sorry.
... to live to Ronda...
...got used to its comfort.
My mother used to do almost all house at home. So, when I went to Cadiz to study I had to get used to doing cooking and cleaning. My flatmates and I used to share food, housework and shopping. I could get used to living in a the new city after some months. I used to love going to the beach. It was sometimes windy and I couldn't get used to it.If had lived more time I would have got used to the wind.
Now I live in Ronda. I'm used to the idea that if I want to see the sea I'll have to drive an hour and half. Fortunately, we have a lot of roads to walk in this town. My husband and I usually walk three times a week. We have got used to working here and we like living in Ronda.
Paragraph with used to:
I usually remember when I was a child, I used to play in the park with my friends and I love play with my dolls and imagine I was a nurse, and nowadays I´m a real nurse but my life is very different I work in a hospital and I´m used to working very hard and during many hours in a row but in my opinion never I get used to get up early but in general I´m really happy with my life.
I’m not used to the idea of driving to go at work because I think that it isn’t healthy and very pollutant. I use to love walking to move. Nevertheless, I had an injury knee and I had to drive my car every day. After that, I couldn’t get used to driving my car. Since then, I go to work with my coworker, because one thing I couldn’t get used to was to drive to go to everywhere. Maybe, if didn’t have any injury, I would walk to go to work.
