Making My Life Easier With My #HiveActivePlug #letsgetliving #ad

Raise your hand ladies and gentlemen if you've ever forgotten to unplug something and you've already left the house.

Yeah, you know who you are!

I'm not judging, okay? I've been there. I've a very busy mommy of two. I can forget things like that from time to time. Then, guess what? I've ended up having to drive all the way back home to unplug things like my flat iron...

Oh, not fun. Especially when we're on a schedule and trying to get somewhere on time.

Such a pain.

So, what have I learned? First off, double check all of the electronics before leaving home. Also, though, to make things even more simple, I've been using my #Hive Active Plug.

I've mentioned my Hive products before. This is one of my favorites because it has been used in so many different ways. No, not just for your flat iron or regular iron.

You can use it for your slow cooker or crock pot. I've done this because although they can cook all day safely, sometimes I'm gone just a bit too long and need to turn it off before my food burns. I use the Hive app and turn it off from wherever I'm at! Yup, BEFORE I even get home.

Decorating for the holidays? This plug can definitely come in handy during that time too. Plug your string of lights into it and then set a schedule (YES you can do that too!). You can set the lights to turn off or on at a certain time, set it for certain days, or even set the lights to turn off or on when a door or window, with the Hive sensor attached, is opened or closed.

These are some pictures of what the app looks like on my phone, to give you an idea.

This is what is shown when you turn the Active Plug off on the app

It's very user friendly. and super useful in my own household. You can also turn it off or on by pushing the circle button on the top, when you're at home.

Choose the right CBD for your daily routine

Can I ask you a question? Have you heard of the endocannabinoid system? If you thought “no” — You are not alone. Most people have no idea it exists… Yet, your endocannabinoid system (ECS) is a neural network that exists throughout your body and in every organ! Appetite, sleep, immune response, mood and pain are all regulated by your ECS and can become imbalanced. In fact, if you are experiencing issues such as inflammation, tremors, stress, lack of appetite or even pain… Then, it’s very likely that your ECS system is imbalanced. And to put your ECS system back in balance, it is time for you to discover the power of cannabinoids. Today, I hope to make this easier for you… My friends over at Elixinol have an amazing product called 300 mg Cinnamint Hemp Oil Drops Tincture and 900 mg CBD capsules that contains full-spectrum, 100% organic hemp cannabinoid extract. And, for a limited time, you can get this product at 15% OFF. Just make sure to

8 Packing Hacks When Moving

Moving is almost rarely enjoyable. I mean, you have to pack up all your stuff just to unpack it again somewhere else? You eat off of paper plates with plastic utensils for your last week because you know your kitchen takes the most to pack. You shift boxes around for weeks while you try and continue living in your home. It’s just not fun. Certain things can make it more enjoyable or at least easier, however. For instance, if you have found a great apartment for rent center city or similar, then you might find that this takes the sting out somewhat. However, there will still be things you need to bear in mind to ensure that you can do it right. The fun comes on the other end when you get to unpack and decorate somewhere new! Whether you’re moving to a new city, a new apartment, with a significant other, into your first married home…it’s exciting doing something new. Now, to get to the new, and past the terrible process of moving, here are my packing hacks. Label everything! Unless you’
