Let a robot vacuum help you out when you have a disability
Vacuuming isn’t hard. But when you have a chronic condition that causes fatigue issues like I do, sometimes it falls by the wayside.

We recently received a cast-off robot vacuum, and it’s changed my life.

But, the beauty of this hack is that it can be used to influence ANY kind of behavior your want to encourage!

Use a notebook and a pencil to keep your car running smoothly
Left to my own devices, I’m not the best at keeping up with regular car maintenance. Since most automotive repairs are timed in mileage, it’s easy to let a deadline zoom right past. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has a mental alarm that goes off when I hit 3,000 miles, so I’m going to share my Baskets! system for keeping my car on the road.
Hang powerstrips under your desk to keep away the dust bunnies & real bunnies
