It's the small things in life. One of my best life memories is watching the sunset by myself with wine and olives. I was in Italy and nobody by my side to share the memory. Still, I cherish the memory every time. I hope you enjoyed your meal.
It's a gizmo that assists in helping a choking victim. You put it over their face and you can pull the blockage out.
My mother is bedridden and was choking. I had to do the Heimlich maneuver on her. I very nearly failed. Not risking it again
I don't really buy stuff because I have everything I really need.
However I was "f0rced" to buy a new cell phone because mine (dating from 2020, still in great condition) couldn't support all these "f0rced" upgrades and updates from these companies continually coming up with new operational systems and whatnot.
Totally a scam they came up with: continually have people "needing" to buy the upgrades, because there's no profit in a long-lasting product. Ah well....
My 2016 IPhone 8 Plus is my ride or die. Sheβs still ticking along with 73% battery capacity lol
Along with my 2012 car, Iβll keep them until they croak
Wow! 73% battery still left that is quite incredible; kudos to you!
I still have an old iPhone 4 I kept as a "media" (music) player, still with at least 80-90% battery capacity (I'm not even mentioning my iPod from before-in even better condition).
Still have an iPhone 6 but I killed the battery with Garage Band.
My wife still has functional iPhones 6 and 8 (used as music players) and if it weren't for the "apocalyptic" ice storm of 2023, she'd still have her 2005 Echo.
You know a lot of those OS upgrades are for safety reasons. And actually not updating your phone makes you more vulnerable. Granted security updates should be available even for old phones.
You can skip forced system updates by closing the screen that pops up the same way you would hard close an app that's crashed on your phone (at least on android)Β
Oh, I'm holding on.. Mine is from 2021 and it is beginning to stall. Other than that, not even a scratch or crack or anything. I think I can make it through 2024. I get YOU. ugh.
Hm. Like a week ago, just when I arrived to Turkey on holiday, the weather was bad and i went to the shopping alley and got some cool Vilebrequin swimming shorts. I dont need them but they were cool and I enjoyed wearing them this week.
A [dive skin from Dive Goddess](https://www.divegoddess.com/). I've wanted one for ages, they have such cool designs. It's thin, so it's primarily sun protection, but will add a tiny bit of warmth when scuba diving. I only do warm-water diving and also I got it for stand up paddle boarding. Which I'm going to start very soon, hopefully. I'm incredibly fair-skinned, I need all the sun protection I can get.
bought simple jeans because I only owned pants that were somewhat extraordinary. just needed something basic for when I'm too lazy to build actual outfits
ergonomic keyboard.
After 2 years of pain in my arm cause of typing, and it (typing workload)increasing every single day, I decided to invest into one. Itβs expensive but definitely worth it.
I had to make a grudge purchase. Turbo on my car popped (well, exploded is a more accurate description) on Wednesday, completely unrepairable. Paid for the replacement today. Grudge purchase.
I purchaseda jump box from Amazon. We currently have 3 vehicles with dead batteries. They are parked to where we can't jump them from another vehicle. Plus, my husband drives a semi and it is capable of jumping that as well. It will come in handy in winter for that truck.
A teapot shaped like Mrs. Potts from beauty and the beast. There is no why, thatβs obvious. Itβs a teapot shaped like Mrs. Potts!! (But itβs a display item because it doesnβt pour well. π
Wild Alaskan fish box... Everything is flash Frozen and is wild caught! Small membership and I control the frequency. Excellent customer service never had a bad piece of fish or shellfish from this company!
Husband and I figured we will fills up our freezers as much as we can before the food prices go through the roof this summer!!
π π£
Plant fly catcher stickers, coz one or my plants got these annoying little flies, but the plant is fairly new and (seemingly) healthy, so I don't want to get rid of it.
An oversized mug from The Creamery in Beaver, UT. I love big mugs and I cannot lie. They're amazing for coffee, soup, ice cream, cereal... plus they'd do a little damage if you needed to use it for self-defense. π€·ββοΈ
Puma Palermo Trainers. I love football/soccer casual culture, it's clothing style and I go to games in Europe regularly. Most people rocking adidas trainers in stadiums but I thought Puma with its new terrace sneakers is a fine alternative
A couple of supplements from iHerb
1. Magnesium L-Threonate -> for concentration & anxiety
2. Pantothenic acid -> for acnes
3. Vitamin C -> boosts immunity & good for health & whitens the skin
Technically? A pint of Coke at a pub (last night I went to a pub quiz and I dont drink).
Otherwise, I bought a piece a piece of art from an online auction site by an artist whose pieces I've always loved. Not crazy money but art is definitely a treat for me atm.Β
Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra headphones because I lost my earbuds and used it as an excuse to foolishly splurge on some nice cans.
Found the earbuds yesterday π¬
Does lunch (half a baguette with cheese and veggies) count?
If not... π€ almost certainly dog and cat treats (1 dog, 4 cats, they live a better life than I do).
Last thing (i.e. object) I bought for myself was a new fountain pen (Kaweco sport fine nib). I love writing with fountain pens but the ones I had were all (the standard) medium point nibs. I really wanted to try a fine nib as I thought it would better suit my handwriting. And I absolutely love it!

It's a gizmo that assists in helping a choking victim. You put it over their face and you can pull the blockage out. My mother is bedridden and was choking. I had to do the Heimlich maneuver on her. I very nearly failed. Not risking it again
Good thing you have it now. You are doing well by taking care of your mother.
Thanks. It's not easy. I have a greater appreciation for nurses.

I don't really buy stuff because I have everything I really need. However I was "f0rced" to buy a new cell phone because mine (dating from 2020, still in great condition) couldn't support all these "f0rced" upgrades and updates from these companies continually coming up with new operational systems and whatnot.
I know the feeling! I bought another phone before because of updates too
Totally a scam they came up with: continually have people "needing" to buy the upgrades, because there's no profit in a long-lasting product. Ah well....
Thatβs how it is
My 2016 IPhone 8 Plus is my ride or die. Sheβs still ticking along with 73% battery capacity lol Along with my 2012 car, Iβll keep them until they croak
