I Love Me Some Tech

8 / 23 / 13

What do you do when your phone dies?

What do you do when your phone reaches capacity and you can’t take a picture for Instagram?

My phone camera reached capacity last night during my workout with Amer and I couldn’t take a video for Instagram! TRAGEDY! I know that my life revolves around technology. I love when I disconnect for a few hours but sometimes it really does give me anxiety.

If you have spent anytime with me in person then you know my phone is just an extension of my right hand. I even run races with it in a ziplock baggy so I can Instagram moments of my fantabulous fun times.

I never leave home without my iPhone and the only time I’ll put it down (sometimes) is during a workout.

I thought I’d share with you some of my favourites apps that keep me motivated and going. I’ll share some of the apps I use on a daily basis, my fitness apps that help me train and stay on track with my nutrition and my love for social media.

Music:

Songza – I’m slightly obsessed with the Pop Wake-Up Call when I’m getting ready in the morning and I’ll listen to Drop a Beat Workout at the gym and this week I discovered Get Pumped: Pop Anthems.

Songza

Nature Sound – If I’m having trouble falling asleep I’ll put on the light rain or light rain on a tent noise and the 30 min sleep timer.

Nature Sound

Fitness:

MyFitnessPal – when I’m starting a new meal plan I’ll track my food in the diary to see how my macros are lining up and the total calories consumed.

my fitness pal

Nike Training – sometimes if I’m bored of my regular routine I’ll throw on an NTC session for a great HIIT workout

NTC

Running:

Nike Running + – I track my runs on this app so I can see my pace & total distance.

Nike Running +

BeatRun – this app allows me to pick a playlist and then choose the Beats Per Minute (BPM) that I want to set the music too. That way I don’t have to research what bpm the song is set to to begin with.

BeatRUn

 

Social Media:

I obviously love me some Facebook, Twitter & Instagram. But I’ll share what I use to edit pics, make collages or post quotes.

InstaQuote – this allows me to write quotes in pretty font on a simple background

instaquote

Over – allows me to take existing collages or images and overlay cool fonts on top

Over

Framestatic – this is my go to app for making picture collages

Frametastic

Tell me how do you use technology or apps to make your life easy and fun??

God’s Direction: Blessing Us With Two Beautiful God’s Direction: Blessing Us With Two Beautiful Babies At Once

God’s Protection: Providing for us after I was fired from 3 jobs in a row since I found out I was pregnant. 

Story Time…

At the end of 2019, I signed a job contract that would move our family out to the west coast at the start of 2020. I resigned from the current job I was in and gave 30 days’ notice. 

2 days later I found out I was pregnant. I took a call from the fertility clinic in the boardroom of the office I worked at (it was the only place I could take a private call to find out the good news). I was fired the next day (after already resigning) for taking a private call and was told to leave the premises immediately. I was told I would be paid for 2 weeks instead of the 4 weeks that I had offered them in my resignation. 

Silver Lining: I fought their offer legally and was paid for the time I had offered them and got to spend a month at home sleeping during the first month of my twin pregnancy and packing for our move to the West Coast. The twin pregnancy was extremely exhausting on my body and I am grateful for the time I had to rest instead of working at one of the most toxic places of employment I’ve ever been at. 

Fast forward to January 6, 2021. I had been on mat leave since the birth of our twins in July 2020 and I had offered to return after a 6 month mat leave. I contacted my boss in November of 2020, to ask to go for coffee and discuss how the business was going and what my return to work would look like. I was ignored for months and finally, he responded to me saying he’d be happy to meet and cc’d HR to coordinate. I thought that was weird as I was just asking to go for coffee. After 2 months of going back and forth and meetings being cancelled and rescheduled, I was finally asked to come into the main office in January of 2021. I thought I was meeting with my boss but was greeted by HR. The audio you hear in this reel is them letting me go while on mat leave without cause. I then found out my job was given to the woman who was covering for me while I was on leave. After filing a complaint with the human rights tribunal I settled out of court.

Potty training is hard! Especially when we’ve be Potty training is hard! Especially when we’ve been doing it for a year with one of our twins.

And don’t come at me with “she’ll start when she wants to start” cause we’ve been starting since last December. We’ve done everything from potty training charts, to giving up and putting her back in pull ups to praise to negative consequences. If I was American I’d say “Ya’ll were tired over here” and doing a lot of laundry 😂

When deciding how we wanted to spend the holidays When deciding how we wanted to spend the holidays with our little family of 4 we wanted to prioritize our love language “Time Spent Together” so we created an activity advent Calendar to countdown the days to Christmas and do 1 activity a day as a family! 

Here is our son picking the day 1 activity which was simply a Christmas Colouring Page 🥹 Can’t wait to see his reaction for some of the more engaging things!
