lmrich Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Grain free (NO rice and no cauliflower - allergic to that, too,), dairy free anything. the perfect bra... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReader Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Hair ties, because they always disappear into the void... I have found bras I like, finally, so that's good (Ambrielle bralettes, no underwire) A pillow that is just right would be amazing (DH did figure out why my pillows break down so much faster, b/c I go to bed w/wet hair, he thinks...) Pants with real, usable front pockets that can actually fit my keys, or phone, or basically anything but a single quarter..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elegantlion Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 pants that fit my hard to fit body the right paper planner - I gave up and make my own as no one makes the size and layout I need. I still look online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carrie12345 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Pillows, for sure. Also, chairs. Indoor dining and outdoor general. My style tends to be found more in the cheap zone, and I’ve repeatedly gotten what I’ve paid for. Otoh, even if I find good ones, I can’t stomach paying $150 or more per chair. 🥺 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ottakee Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Hiking pants that fit my heavy thighs…..find the closest thing so far….Duluth teasing company mens relaxed fit cargo hiking pants…..complete with 12 usable pockets. Bras that fit with no underwire but support my larger books….I had heart surgery when I was a kid and I have a scar that runs around my rib cage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spryte Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) Labeled allergy free foods — free of the Top 8 plus sesame. When we had a local bakery open up, I had the kids pose in front for pics. Currently on the hunt for a particular piece of furniture — a vintage MCM, preferably teak, by one of several designers. And I’d like it to be in excellent condition, at a steal price. 🤣 Edited July 22, 2022 by Spryte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indigo Blue Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 The pillows…. Try a millet or buckwheat pillow. They take some getting used to, but the support never wears out. You can adjust them, bunch it up just right, and make a divot for your ear. They are not 100% without a downside, but, for me, I need my neck to be supported and my face to not roll forward when I’m on my side. They are firmly supportive. You can get an extra bag of millet so you can take out or add as needed. You do give up that soft cloud feeling, but you gain real support instead. There is an adjustment period, for sure.

Indigo Blue Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Pens and mechanical pencils. It makes no sense, but I like looking for just the “right” ones. Certain ones that write a certain way. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wintermom Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Green spaces and trees. When I'm out walking in my town or any place on vacation, I'm always searching for the green parks and forests. Water, such as rivers, ponds, lakes or ocean. I love them all, and my gaze seems to search for water. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelli Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Cream of onion soup! I have a delicious chicken and rice casserole that calls for this ingredient, but it's pretty much impossible to find. I substitute instead, but it's not the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ottakee Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 For a pillow, I love my Tuft and Needle pillow. I think it comes with a return policy if you don’t like it. Wasn’t cheap but worth it for me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My husband had tailbone problems for years.... to the point where he really couldn't drive for more than an hour, which seriously limited his life. About a year ago he finally found a PT who gave him the right exercises. He HATES doing the exercises and therefore lapses... but when he does them (10 min morning and night) he's good. Hope you find something that works for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustEm Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 I workout routine that I love and can stick with. Once upon a time I had a cardio kickboxing class that I loved. It was fun so I almost never let other things stop me from going, it made me very strong, and I loved the other people in the class. I lost that community, which is a 100% positive for my family and me but I haven't found a workout quite like it that keeps me motivated 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a pair of super thick old navy sweats. I’ve never seen thicker sweat pant material before or since. I finally wore a hole in the crotch seams after a decade of wear. It’s not often cold enough to wear them but I adore them when it’s freezing. I still wear them over leggings when traveling to a dance class in the middle of winter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarita Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 A new thing to learn. Perfect underwear. My skin is sensitive to weird things and it's gotten worse after pregnancy/getting older.

Kuovonne Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 A copy of the read-aloud book my 6th grade teacher read to his class. "We Thought We Heard the Angels Sing" by James Whittaker. It was a hardcover book with a red cover. I've looked for it in every used book store I've visited since college. At this point I should probably just buy it used online. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcadia Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Pretty and practical stationary that is not pink. I don’t usually buy but I do love going to Kinokuniya and Daiso to look at their stationary aisles. When I am at airports waiting for my boarding gate to open, I would also look at stationary at the souvenir shops inside the duty free area. I also like pretty keychains and bag charms. I use keychains as zip pulls and bag charms to doll up my backpacks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
