y’all! I found something amazing!

I have an awesome find to share… but first…

Another trip to Pho Shiki

Ben, Colette and I ate at Pho Shiki (again) and I took the standard “in the car” photo. I skipped the “bowl of pho” photo this time around because I was hungry. 🙂

Yes, Coco is wearing a sweatshirt and it was 95°. I thought she was crazy. After 10-minutes in that frigid restaurant I wished I’d have worn one too.

Now the good stuff!

Yesterday I noticed I was no longer wearing my Oura ring — the sleep/activity tracker that I’ve told you about before. Even though it can be worn in water, I still take it off when I shower/take a bath or do dishes. Otherwise, it never leaves my finger. But at some point it sure did. The sucker was GONE.

Oura Ring

After looking EVERYWHERE without success, I knew I needed help. The ring doesn’t have GPS, so I downloaded an app that locates bluetooth devices called Wunderfind, opened it and waited for magic to happen.

No Oura ring showed up from the office.

Wunderfind told me to walk around. By the time I got 1/2 way down the hall, there was a signal named “Oura.” Yay!

It was like a treasure hunt so Perry joined the fun!

Exactly like that “hot and cold game” we played as kids, I walked around pointing my phone. We walked toward the “warmer” signal and backed away when a “cooler” one appeared. The signal rose to 65% once I got in the garage… and over the trash container, the signal was around 89%. ARG!

Rummaging around through the container, the signal was strongest over a bag near the bottom. Pouring the contents of that stinky bag onto carboard, out rolled the ring! I told Perry what an amazing job he did — but really, the app was the hero. It’s a free download and saved me $300 bucks.

Download Wunderfind — it’s available on Google Play Store and on the Apple App Store. It will come in handy — promise.
