Clap it up!

What apps do you use daily?

Snapchat – to talk to my 3 older kids, of course they rarely actually will send or reply to a good old text message, well Taz will I guess but not the girls. I also use Snapchat to send out my “Clear Your Mind” quotes from Pinterest to certain people each morning.

Pinterest – I liken it it flipping through a magazine, so much to see on absolutely any topic, love their fashion ideas.

The Weather Network – it’s the farmer in me. I believe we actually did have frost the other morning, some of my flowers look like they froze and are wilted.

Google Maps – when someone mentions a place, I need to go on there and see where it is. I love knowing where places are in the world.

Steps App – to track my steps each day. The last three days I’ve been hitting over 10,000 so I’m happy for that. I also cut out sugar again and have been doing intermittent fasting. So far this week I made it downstairs in the evening to do some stretching/yoga poses and a quick weight workout.

As Sid says when he reaches a new level playing whatever game it is on his iPad, clap it up! We thought it was so funny when he said that so that’s the new phrase in our house whenever one of us thinks we deserve kudos, clap it up!

Clap it up for me because even if I haven’t lost weight, I feel so much better and am sleeping wonderfully. And I do feel more trim.

Back to work selfie! Students return Sept 8

  1. Wow! I’m evidently a little less on line than you 😊 My list would be Facebook and Instagram. I’m very methodical in that I do my emails and catch up on these two once a day first thing in the morning over a cup of tea ☕️
    I feel the frustration of children being attached to their phones and not responding 😊

    1. I just gave up FB and IG but did enjoy them. Feel much lighter now though. No more “social media”.

    1. Lol it’s like when you feel you’ve done something that deserves applause, you say to those around you “clap it up” (as in your hands, clap your hands). 😂

  3. WELL DONE!
    👏👏

    I figured my list would be short, but then I looked and closed about 42 tabs, so there you go…

    the Gram, the Facebook, the YouTubes (on a production week), JetPack, Sportsnet, Weather, news apps, Amen, Hallow, Whats, (holy moly this feels like a lot), Sirius….

    you know, we used to get a lot of this in a newspaper…
