She uses her <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/southwest-airlines/id344542975?mt=8" target="_blank">Southwest Airlines App</a>, then slides over to her <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/gateguru/id326862399?mt=8" target="_blank">Gate Guru app</a> and to top it off she checks out her lights at home with the <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/schlage-link/id304152695?mt=8" target="_blank">Schlage app</a>. Speaking of Schlage, their <a href="http://link.schlage.com/" target="_blank">LiNK system</a> does a lot more than turning on and off lights. You can also lock and unlock doors, live-stream footage and control your thermostat to name just a few. I'm in the process of remodeling our kitchen and living room, and I'm tempted to buy one of the locks to give it a try. I'll let you know how that goes. I'm not exactly what you would call a "handyman" when it comes to home repair but I think Schlage makes it pretty simple.Â*</p>
