Secure your peace of mind with Uniden

Are you reading the same news pieces as I am? Crime is up in our neighbourhoods. Having been through theft on my property; a bike from our open garage, and a set of solar lights from our walkway, this is no joke. There is one of those mobile, blinking sign units set up around the corner from where I live with a plea from the police: PLEASE LOCK YOUR DOORS AND CARS.

Enough said. We need more home security.

We’ve tried other non-hardwired cameras in the past, but the problem was always the charging! Gah! Before we knew it, they would run out and someone would have to climb the ladder to retrieve them and recharge. After a while, no one would go up at all and our home would be unprotected.

Introducing Uniden’s latest in smart security cameras, the new App CAM SOLO X Series. The Guardian App Cam Solo X2K Bullet Kit is a Super HD Smart security WiFi camera and power spotlight in one. This Pack is equipped with a Solar Panel for non-Stop charging during daylight allowing your camera to always be charged.

I received the SOLO X2K Bullet Kit and got to work unpacking and installing the unit. The easy-to-negotiate quick start-up guide explained all of the components with simple pictures and wording, and the installation process, apart from the screwing in, (whyyyy does he always leave the battery on the power drill dead???), was as simple as 1-2-3.

While letting it charge up a bit, I downloaded the FREE My Uniden+ app, popped in a few details, and added my camera. Within minutes I was able to configure my SOLO X2K Bullet and see what it can do!

Brimming with features like colour night vision, SD card backup and free 7 days rolling cloud backup for the life of the camera, weather resistance, heat and movement sensors, remote viewing, spotlight, two-way talk and siren alert and the 2-year warranty all make this the perfect model to protect our home and cars.

Knowing that I can see who’s approaching our home when I’m not there, (and when I am!), is an amazing relief, but most of all, knowing that the charging was being taken care of by way of the included solar panel and the unit is always working brings such piece of mind to our family.

See more about the unit we received and Uniden’s other amazing security and surveillance products here.

No Food Shaming.

If you grew up in the ‘80s, ‘90s, or early 2000’s, chances are you were taught to see food through a moral lens: veggies were “good,” chocolate was “bad,” and fat was something to fear. That messaging stuck.

So now, when you reach for a bag of chips after a long day or say yes to dessert, a quiet voice in the back of your mind is likely to whisper: “You shouldn’t.” You feel like you’ve done something wrong – simply for eating something you enjoy. And here’s the thing: our kids are watching. They’re listening. The way we talk about food becomes the way they relate to it.

If you want to raise confident eaters, it’s time to let go of the “good” vs “bad” food narrative and allow your kids to enjoy food without guilt or shame. Let’s be real; some foods are more nutrient-dense than others. But that doesn’t mean that we need to rank them on a scale. Instead of calling food “good” or “bad”, try talking about how it fits into the bigger picture of what our bodies need. 

Read on for a few ways to reframe the conversation:

The Myth of the Perfect Parent
Somewhere along the way, we’ve been sold this idea that good parenting means never messing up. That if we just try hard enough, read the right books, and avoid raising our voices, we’ll somehow unlock the secret to raising perfectly adjusted children. But here’s the truth which I finally accepted: there is no perfect way to parent. There are only good days and bad days. There are moments when you handle things beautifully and moments when you yell something ridiculous like, “WHY ARE YOUR SHOES IN THE FRIDGE?” There are times when you feel like a hero and times when you feel like a complete failure. And that’s okay.
