Sorry I thought I posted this in chat previously.

What ideas and hints do you have to make life easier and even more fun? Share the wealth?

I'll start.

Store cat food cans upside-down and it will come out easier.

Kill creepy crawlies with damp paper towel. Waggle your fingers on one side of the monster and grab it with the wet towel or tissues from the other side. It works.

And drawers.

Goodwill run.

To keep from getting colds, flu, sinus infections cut
1/2 to 1 whole mushroom in slices, mix with shredded
cheese in a bowl, break egg and yolk over the top,
salt and pepper, microwave for 45 secs up to 1 min.
Optional: add sweet peppers or jalapenos for extra spice.
Salsa can be used in place of salad dressing for more
zing and less calories.

This replaces a daily multi-vitamin / multi-mineral.

Brush teeth with apple cider vinegar and baking soda,
kills gingivitis and polishes teeth. Can also use
Diatomaceous Earth in place of baking soda. DE has
lots of uses esp. in the garden for controlling pests.

The is a perfectly logical mathematical rationale for this.

10 ÷ 9 leaves a remainder of 1, so 50 ÷9 leaves a remainder of 5.

100 ÷ 9 remainder is 1, etc.

Make a playlist of whatever music puts a smile on your face and make sure to listen to it every day for at least some period, the earlier in the day the better (for me, it’s 80’s music). It will brighten your mood for the rest of the day.

“Go to the range regularly and practice with your favorite weapon.”

The tongue is the favorite weapon of too many people, and they wield it indiscriminately.

It’s OK to do nothing
You can afford the gas. Go where you want. “I really shouldn’t waste the gas to go to ...” Shut up, just shut up. Just go. One day you won’t be able to drive and you will dream of that freedom.
Buy the good wine.
Buy the stereo you dreamed of in college.

Go hit tennis balls against a wall during the coolest part of the day (and don’t forget H2O!).

It would be easier and quicker to just wash a bowl than make that awkward and unreliable contraption.

Truthfully? Knowing that I can step out in my garage and get on my motorcycle and ride the back roads of Kentucky. That is the world’s greatest Stress reliever.

You can never go wrong with “buy low, sell high”.
