I bought a sponge of sorts advertised as for getting pet hair out of bed sheets. I've no pets, but stress makes me lose tons of hair and I've long hair. It works like marvel for my own hair! It's so life changing! I love it!

I was also able to get a mini white paint with a mini roller for practically nothing to finish off the wall fixes I was doing.

I also got a tiny brush meant for keyboards and discovered my keyboard was super nasty with my hair on the inside. >____<

Fair enough, but I did have a Time 1 (curse fitbit for strangling the Time 2 in the crib) that I used daily for about 5 years and still got 5-6 days of battery on it. I've heard good things about the pine time - and I love their ethos, so I'll check that out.

Now I just need to figure out how to not have the skin on my wrist irritated from wearing a watch regularly...

I don't have a smartwatch. I notice that a lot of them have silicone straps. Does yours?

If yes: get a leather strap.

Yeah I've definitely noticed the silicone ones are a lot worse. I've got a few different straps I use, and the leather ones are definitely much better, though not entirely foolproof. Hairy wrists probably doesn't help either.

Metal ones are a pretty classic hairy dude look. And now they have ceramic ones that are structures the same way.

Or you could just get a 2" band of electrolysis. That'd be hot.

Metal bands pinch the hair like crazy; I've had a few dressy watches that I just couldn't wear for very long at all because of that.

Maybe on the selective deforestation though. I did used to have a pretty sick watch tan back in the day. But with wfh I just don't really have as much need for a watch or a purse, sadly, since I do love having them both.
