Do yourself a favor and get yourself a good brand when it comes to buying socks. There’s some things in life to spend your hard earned money on and when it comes to socks don’t cheap out.
Get the good ones. These are not neccessarily the ones with swooshes or polo players because then you’re just buying into somebody else’s idea of fashion. The are just socks after all and maybe because it’s because I am older but I don’t need to splash a logo all over my clothes - especially on my socks. Buy hey, you do you.
I will advise again though to not scrimp on qaulity. Don’t buy socks because they are cheap. You will end up buying more socks faster than if you coughed up the dough on the first round and just bought the good ones.
When it comes to socks, stick to brand name. If the socks are a dollar a pair then chances are you will get what you pay for. I think that in 2023 you should be paying at least a dollar a foot for a good pair of socks.
We bought this whale shaped non slip bath mat a few years back now and it’s held up very well considering the price of about $20.00. It’s held up well and has prevented multiple trips to the emergency room I am sure.
It’s got a good amount of suction cups ont the bottom too. Just remember to hang it up after you’re using it oherwise it’s a bitch to clean. It has a little tab that connects the tail to the rest of the body so you get a “hook” of sorts to hang it on a hook.
Again,hang this sucker up after use. It gets yucky pretty fast oherwise.
I am not sure how, but I have acquired a whole slew of wireless mice. My current daily driver is a
steelseries rival 3 wireless mouse which is actually really good for the price. I haven’t had a gaming mouse before, but it’s really a nice device.
The other mice I have are usually off brand wirless mice that are just okay and not great. I really don’t have much preference for wireless mice as long as they work and that’s the main requirement here.
I don’t know how this happend, but we have a lot of travel mugs in the house. I bring one with me to work, but I don’t know where
the others come from.
I do have a few requirements for a travel mug though and it’s a simple request: for it to *not spill. You would think that would be
a very simple requirement, but nope. I want a lid that does not leak and that’s it. But threre seems to be different variations of the lids
and in my opinion, it matters. I like to keep my shirts clean and don’t want to have cofee spilled all down the front of my shirt so
buying the right travel mug is important to me.
I don’t know how parents did it before where they actually had to interact with thier kids. :) I guess we had a lot more freedom as kids compared to now where we tend to keep tabs on our little ones at all times comared to days of yesteryear.
Anyway, unless you’re really strict or live a very simple life - your kid probably has a device. and that device makes sound.
If it’s like our house that device plays frozen over and over again. Let me tell you that Frozen gets old real fast. “Let it go…..”.
So what better way to silence the singing in your head than to introduce the singing in their head and have the noise from the devices pumped directly into their ears? And they come with volume limiting so those tiny ears won’t get damaged
It’s win-win. You don’t have to listen to their songs over and over again and yet they are entertained. These things are worth more than they cost. Hit the link below to check the price.
I don’t know where these things go. I swear we just bought her some and yet when laundry day comes there are no socks. No, let me rephrase that: there are no matching socks. We have a lot of single socks so she wears these because, they’re still socks for 4 year old girls.
Wow, that got out of hand in a hurry. Last I counted, the 4 year old has 9 of these stuffed toys which are apparently the
cabbage patch kids for 2023. At least that’s what I think.
What I do know is that the dog loves them and will eat them if given the chance. It got one a few weeks ago and there was fluff everywhere. I am not sture what they stuff these things with, but there’s a lot of it in there.
These things can be cheap, but the bigger ones can run you more than $40.00 so don’t let your dog near them. Ask me how I know.
In an effort to keep my writing area cleaner I have downsized my headphone amplifers to smaller units but I also replaced the 3 foot RCA cables with something much shorter as the 3 footers were just too long when you only need a few inches.
I ended up with much shorter rca patch cords that really help with keeping the desktop clean and I don’t have such a mess behind my desk.
These ones are actually nice and are simple and reliable cables and nothing else. I hate the marketing that goes with audio cables that are priced in the hundreds and even thousands of dollar when a pair of ten buck cables will do the trick.
These are well made and cheap.
Hey, what do you think about phone cases? Are you a case person or a naked phone type of person?
Personally I like to have a case because I drop my phone a lot and phones are expensive. Yes, it makes the phone bulkier but I prefer that to dropping a grand worth of glass in my hand. I never understood the internet’s obsession about phones and design. They’re all pretty much the same and if you slap a case on it there’s a good chance you won’t even see the design - so whatever.
Anyway, phone cases: I used to buy just otterbox cases but they’re pricey for what they are and I have gotten cheap in my old age. That said - I don’t recommend some of the cheap cases from China you can find because well, they’re cheap. I tend to stick to recognizeable phone case brands and right now I am rocking a Spigen case that seems to do the trick.It comes in some colors but I just opted for basic black.
