Congrats on the new job! I’ve found Superfeet insoles to be supremely helpful, both for walking and standing. My orthopedist recommended them a few years ago, and I’ve been using them ever since. Superfeet’s website has a nice “Insole Finder” to help choose the right type of insole for your needs, which I found accurate for my feet.

I see some other Nivea mentions in this thread, but not what I use: Nivea in-shower lotion. After rinsing off body wash/soap, I use Nivea in-shower lotion, then make sure the body parts I put it on get wet again (water activates it) right before I turn off the water. Then there’s no need for additional post-shower lotion.

I just learned that my local library network has craft supply swap days! Anyone can bring craft supplies or tools they no longer need and/or walk out with supplies and tools that someone else brought to give away. It’s only once every few months, but that cadence apparently works well for this area (smallish city).

I lived in a city for a while that had a small number of loanable tickets to a family-friendly local attraction or two (e.g. zoo or aquarium) people could check out for the day. Especially popular with families with kids on a budget!

You reminded me of one of my favorite pieces of early-ish internet history that is still up: the Traffic Cone Preservation Society
