What have you bought recently?

Just received a new watch.

My first 'smart watch' and I really like it.
Didn't cost much, but it sure has a lot of features.
Lightweight, 1.78" edge to edge watch face.
pairs nicely to my phone, with the app.
Has the normal things like music control, phone answer, messages, 02, heartrate, Blood pressure,
ECG., lots of watch faces, I68 waterproof, etc.
One thing I really like is I can upload a picture from my phone to the watch face.
It will find a place in my watch rotation, probably around the house.

Nice! I like flannels too... I usually only buy one colour
Thank you. I "discovered" these waffle textured washcloths (like below) and love them. I don't have any the color pictured though. I bought three packs which came in assorted colors so I could get enough of the sea foam green (like towels below) and white ones, to match my towels. When I went back, they were out of the waffle ones in my preferred colors so I got the ones in my prior post.

I bought a Jackery power supply and a solar panel to power it. I considered a gas powered machine, but just not as practical and the power doesn't generally go out here that often. Not that it won't in bad conditions. Since I bought it the sun has been hiding and this spring has turned out to be a very cloudy one, but that's Oregon. It's 500 watts and takes several hours to charge in direct sunlight. Much better if it is really clear. Even a little cloudy will slow down the charge. 500 watts means it will run most kinds of lights, electronic devices. They make some heaters it will run but not enough to heat anything efficiently. Will run some small electric motors. I mainly use it to run and charge my laptop and sometimes the TV. I charge all my devices with it. It could start a car with a dead battery if I bought some connections. Kind of a toy but
fun to use. I can also charge it with my car when I drive. If I know I am driving more than a few miles it charges fairly quickly.

I recently purchased a small charger to recharge my car battery. I had just put a new battery in the car, left the lights on in the garage for days. This thing is great, started the car right up. Fits in my glove box, and will be with me if I get stuck out and about. It also will do devices.
 
Amazon, love it. Ordered new dog brush, comb and nail clippers. Also got one pup a new harness. I went to Petsmart, prizes seemed high and not that much to choose from. Amazon, much cheaper and more selection! They were ordered yesterday and will arrive today.

About a month ago, my wife bought several new towel sets from the My Pillow guy. Are they ever nice. She also bought some of his sheet sets for our king bed and they are very comfortable. I was always skeptical about his stuff, but my wife’s cousin bought some of the things and my wife liked them so much that she decided to buy some of his towels and linens. She said she is going to buy his pillows this week.

My wife is kind of clean nut. She changes the pillowcases every single day. No, you didn’t read that wrong. Have you ever heard of that? I asked her why does she do that and she told me that because she read in one of her magazines that people drool onto their pillowcases every night. I don’t know what to think about that.

I think it is more common than you think. I also use pillow covers to protect my pillows. They go on and zip and are easy to take on and off for laundry weekly. Good pillows and matresses are expensive so I try to take care of them the best I can. We spend 1/3 of our day in bed or more, I find that I would rather spend more money on good quality that ensures a good nights rest.
