Getting MORE

The following post is sponsored by FitFluential LLC on behalf of Verizon Wireless.

There are a lot of things we’d all love more of, aren’t there?

– More time

– More money

– More sunshine

– More SPRING

– More muscle

– More endurance

– More strength

– More time …oh I said that, huh?

Guess you can’t really buy those thing at a store or pluck them off a wish-granting tree. That’s too bad. But there are ways to make some of those happen.

The only way I’ve figured out how to get more time is to do the dreaded, unrecommended time-management strategy of multi-tasking. Dun dun dunnn. I try to do it with things that won’t suffer from lack of total attention. Example: listen to a report on my phone while on the treadmill at the gym. I know, way less exciting than some good mood-boosting music. {I use the Sol Republic relay headphones I’ve mentioned before. Love that they actually stay in my ears.}

Or perhaps checking and replying to emails that only need a quick, non-indepth response if I’m a few minutes early picking the Kynado up from preschool. {I don’t waste a minute of precious school time. Winking smile}

Or timing a conference call for when I’d be stuck in the car anyways. {Thank goodness for the invention of blue tooth.}

The downside is these things all require the use of your phone, minutes, and data plan. A plus since it’s an on the go option but still a negative because it’s easy to go over all that stuff especially if you share a plan. I’ve told you about Verizon Wireless’ EDGE program before; their newest program focuses on the plan instead of just the product. It’s called… MORE {surprise, surprise}. MORE Everything gives you a way to have more text, talk, and data, without spending more money.

more everything

It includes {among other things}:

– Shareable data

– Unlimited texting

– 25 gb cloud storage per user

verizon more everything plan

So until there’s an actual way to really get more time, using technology is the best way I’ve found to get around it.

What to you do to squeeze in more?

Love List

There are a lot of things I love. I thought I’d share a few with you. 😉

Things I'm loving lately

This gluten-free pancake mix. There’s a good chance I’d use this even if I didn’t need it to be gluten-free. A lot of GF blends are gritty and bake weird {take a long time} but this one just bakes and tastes like normal yummy pancakes. I literally buy it in bulk from amazon.

These headphones {ps these were a freebie from an upcoming fitfluential campaign}. I almost broke up with listening to music while a workout {which is pretty much a deal-breaker at the gym} before using these. I prefer the fit of the cheapo headphones that use to come with ipods back in the day. The fancy schmancy ones tend to fall out of my absurdly tiny ears. These actually stayed put during my jaunt on the treadmill yesterday and the sound quality is amazing. {By the way, I’m up to 3 consecutive, pain-free running minutes-3 cheers for PT}.

This bag. Speaking of the gym, this is my new go – to bag {in pearl}. I’ve actually been using it for the gym and for work. It’s padded in all the right plaves, has tons of zippered pockets, and is made of antimicrobial material- a must for gym locker rooms. It’s a hybrid backpack duffel bag which is interesting. Full review coming next week, but FYI they are 40% off this week. {And they’re monthly giveaway is a yoga bag!}

This office. Anyone want to come make mine look like that?
