aka possessions which are just possessions, but which have noticeably improved my quality of life: for when people ask you âwhat do you want for your birthday/Christmas/graduationâ and you instantly transform into St Francis and pledge fealty to Lady Poverty because your mind went blank
nice. new. sheets. I cannot emphasize this one enough. if youâre still using the same sheets you had in college, you should probably get new ones. get yourself some 100% bamboo rayon sheetsâtheyâre silky and perfect for summer and great for sensitive skin! or, if youâre cold all the time, flannel sheets!
kitchen knives. or even just one really good kitchen knife.
new curtainsâblackout if you are a creature of the night like I am
fleece lined anything, but especially sweatpants and hoodies. wool lined socks are also good. if you donât have the option of coming home after work and putting on an entire outfit that is loose and fuzzy, you should change that, because you deserve that option.
cookie sheets with a layer of air between the top and the bottom. the bottoms of your cookies will never burn again.
kitchen scale!!! no more leveling off flour with a knife and getting it all over the table!! now all your measuring is just shoveling stuff in and out of bowls like youâre at the beach. baking is both more accurate and also way more fun.
coffee bean grinder. if you want to upgrade your coffee experience, this is a great one-time purchase. just-ground beans have a much better flavor than pre-ground.
CDs!! ask for a gift card and expand your physical music collection! or a collection of the DVDs for your favorite show!
Fellow epileptics, I have some fantastic news for you. Thereâs an add-on that makes the internet safer for us. Itâs called Epilepsy Blocker. The creator had me test it out, give feedback, he made adjustments, and it works great. It may even help those with migraine disorders that are triggered by the same thing that messes with those of use with photosensitive epilepsy (mine is a case of being absurdly sensitive).
This is the only add-on Iâve encountered made specifically for those of us with epilepsy. Itâs not a well known add-on, but I hope to see that change.
what a lovely normal day on which nothing special is occurring. love experiencing a day that is just like any other. you should donate to firstnations.org
