NO LIVE MARCH 30th - Jen is OOO this weekend!

There are things in my iPhone settings that are grayed out and not clickable. How do I fix this?

Sounds like you have content restrictions enabled. Content restrictions help to protect your phone from unwanted access or changes. I used to use it when my kids were little and would always play on my phone.

You can easily disable it. Go to settings > Screen Time > Privacy + Restrictions > turn off.

Got an iPad and Apple Pencil? Try this!

Here’s a neat trick I stumbled upon. When using your Apple Pencil (or generic iPad pencil), there are gestures you can do to be more productive. Here’s what I discovered!

✏️ You can use “scribble” mode to write with the pen and turn it into text automatically. Go to settings > pencil > turn on scribble.

✏️When using the pencil in scribble mode, you can draw a line through text to delete it, or circle text to delete it.

✏️You can also draw a line between letters to insert a space.

✏️Delete something you’ve written or drawn by “scribbling” over it.

Give it a try. You’ll need to be in a notes app, like Evernote, Goodnotes (my personal favorite), or the official Notes app.

My Password Book! It may be old school to write down your passwords, but sometimes that’s just easier! 🤩

🤓 Side Note

Hello from the lake!
It was time for a little R+R this weekend, after a crazy couple of weeks, so me and the hubby headed to cabin just off the shores of Lake Erie to unwind. As I sit here looking at the walls of this 80 year old cabin, and smelling that cabin smell - it takes me back to my youth. My family and I started vacationing at the the lake from the age of 13 all the way to my early 30’s. This part of Ohio is just very special to me.

Anyway - I admit I may be working (a little) while I’m here - gotta still pay the bills…. but the office view is pretty spectacular (see below). However, I will be putting the laptop down tomorrow, so no live this week. In the meantime, you can catch any of the past LIVEs on Instagram or YouTube. I will be back Monday ready to start the week and one of my favorite months, April! (it’s my bd month! 🎂)

Have a fantastic weekend wherever you spend it! 🫶🏼

Quote of the week

March - the month where I realize how many New Years resolutions I’ve given up on.
