What have you bought recently?

Bought a couple of toys for Deja. One is a set of 3 long rainbow colored "teasers" on wands. My BFF said her cat and other cats she knows of loved those things. The other is this motion toy. The picture is deceiving because only one butterfly can be installed and rotated at a time. The others are spares. This is a battery operated toy and the butterfly twirls around and supposedly makes fluttering motions as well.

Spent ages last night looking at reviews for evening safety lights for walking.

Ordered these two items. ~$35. I would have preferred ones with long lasting batteries like my present wrist bands that are nearly defunct. They don’t seem to sell those any more.

We also wear vests, but the flashing really seems to help draw attention to us.

These arrived and are great, as long as they last. I ordered the crossbody one for myself today. Both nights out walking other walkers commented and wanted to know where we got these.
 
At Walmart I frittered away $22 on another pair of Levi's. I really like high-rise skinny jeans.

There were all sorts of heavy sweaters, shirts, jackets at WM. Least expensive among them was $29.95. What? We were in Walmart! I can only imagine what prices are in "real" stores like Lord & Taylor or Saks. Makes me glad I don't need any clothes except for the occasional pair of jeans.
 
On Amazon
AquaSonic Duo Dual Handle Ultra Whitening 40,000 VPM Wireless Charging Electric ToothBrushes - 3 Modes with Smart Timers - 10 Dupont Brush Heads & 2 Travel Cases Included
15 Piece Set
4.6 out of 5 stars 22,584
Limited time deal
$39.95 ($39.95/Count) was $69.95

These work better than all the other wireless electric tooth brushes we've bought.
 
A laptop, and now I am busy moving files and setting it up. It does not have the storage of my current desktop, so I am doing a lot of "pruning." I will still have to use an external hard drive to store all of my music.

One of my mistakes is that I was lazy and did not throw old stuff away. I also had no idea how much storage is associated with TurboTax. I am going to have to do my 2022 taxes on my desktop, and then move selected files to the laptop.

My objective is to continue downsizing so that we can sell this three-bedroom house, with large attic, big garage, and big shed and move into a two-bedroom apartment in a Senior Living complex. This has been a very large project, and there are so many things that I just hate to part with, but they are no longer really useful.

My plan is to give up my car by the time I turn 85.
 
Well turns out I had to order another litter box. The one I bought last week and had such high hopes for is not working out. It was a little bent and the sides don't stay firmly locked. Leaving the top on helps with that but my kitten looked rather frightened when she entered while the top was on. She's getting tall and honestly I can't see how a full grown cat could fit comfortably in there with the top on. Plus yesterday she still wound up getting a little pile of litter on the floor just outside the box. I suspect that's due to the ledge that collects litter which got pushed onto the floor when she jumped out.

So I got this one instead. It's actually a little bigger than the one above and she will not feel enclosed. It's due to arrive today.
