Works for Me

 
 
As a working mom it is important to use my "assistants"  to help me in my daily life.  I consider the crock pot, washing machine, dishwasher, etc to be my assistants as well as the 4 beauties that live with me....hahaha.  But the one thing that has made the biggest difference to my success (loosely used term) as a working mom is my iPhone. 
 
I use it to stay in touch with my family, the calendar to remember where and when to be places, weather app to know what to wear for the day, alarm to wake up from my naps on my lunch hour (not every day), lists for my grocery shopping, Christmas list, and on and on and on.
 
Some of my favorite apps are:
Cozi Family  Calendar
Walgreen's
My Fitness Pal (I have lost almost 20 pounds using it)
Shazam  (because I love music)
The Weather Channel
P Tracker (For "that time of the month")
My social media outlets...Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Bloglovin, Pintrest
 
I also use the camera all the time, the flashlight, and the music for all of my favorite songs.
 
I know I also waste a lot of time on my phone because of the apps, but I still think the positives it has given me outweighs the negatives. 
 
Yes, I now wonder..... "Is there an app for that?"

Daybook....

Good Morning, I am linking up with  The Simple Woman's Blog  for the weekly Daybook For today... February 9, 2015 Outside my window .... Chilly (in the 30's for a high) but no snow.  Most of the snow has melted from the warm temps this weekend. I am thinking ... that I had a great, great weekend with my family. I am thankful. .. that my children view each other as important.  We had to plan Lucy's birthday celebration around Katie's work hours because she just started her new job and can't request time off.  Lucy would have never considered celebrating her birthday without her big sis present. I am wearing. .. my sparkly sweater again.  I must need the sparkles to handle a Monday morning. I am creating ... nothing at the moment, but do have some unfinished projects.  My mind has been exhausted lately and I am just chilling and puttering around. I am praying ... for a family decision that could make a huge difference in our live...

It's OK

Time for some grumbling, snarkiness, and maybe a little bad attitude... So who came up with flowered scented dish soap?  Someone who drinks perfume?  This is just so gross. Really. Why must the good foods be fattening?  Why is Coca Cola bad for your weight, health, teeth,etc. but so good for your mood?  I would say that it is just me but the fact it is a billion dollar industry would contradict that, just sayin. Why did God not give me the love of cooking to match my love of eating home cooked foods?   Where do all my socks go? Really, my house is not that big. Is it really necessary to get hot sweats at night?  Wouldn't society be better if the menopausal women at least were well rested?  I think I need a snickers, I am definitely in Diva mode today!! 

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...
