I bought a piece of 1.5 inch stiff foam to try to fix a sag in a bed. It didn’t work but having that thick piece of solid foam around has been a life saver.
Need something flat to put a laptop on? Throw it on the foam. Going to be doing something that requires you to be on your knees for a while? Get the foam!
It went from stupid purchase to something I’d gladly replace if it broke.
Backscratcher! My mom bought me a cheap one as a silly stocking stuffer one Xmas, I thought it was funny, then I started using it. I have since upgraded to a solid bamboo one that I keep by my bed, it’s amazing.
As someone that wears a bra I can’t imagine life without one tbh. What do people do without them? Just accept the itching?? Rub their back along walls and furniture like a bear?
You joke, but my husband does this all the time.
I can’t always find mine, and yes. When it happens and the scratcher is nowhere to be found I have three options:
Pointlessly, and furiously try to scratch it myself, fail and just accept my suffering.
Find something significantly textured or sharp(ish) to stand in for the scratcher, like a rope or the corner of a wall, or a doorway or something, then rub my back on it like a crazed bear.
Ask for help… I mean, if anyone is around at all…
I’ve taken to supplementing my main back scratcher with a few cheap ones that are strategically placed around in case of emergencies since my “good” one keeps going missing on me… I used to have a stable place to keep it, not so much, since I’ve recently moved… Now I’ll find it behind the couch or on the floor under a random table. I need to get a good, steady location to keep it, so I know where it is at all times.
Can’t feel back itch when feeling back pain
this thing has given me full independence. no more begging for back scratches.
The Cactus Back Scratcher on Amazon is THE BEST.
