I need to get a new chair. The one I've been using is beyond broken. Missing wheels, cracked in some places, etc. I sit on it and the back support leans back. It cannot be good for posture. I normally switch between sitting on a chair on kneeling on a pillow as I use the PC throughout the day. Perhaps I kneel more than sitting... can't be good for my knees. I've thought about standing up too. Now, the options are endless... what kind of chair to select... definitely not one made out of material that causes me to warm up easily.

Alright, I have narrowed it down to one chair. I am also going to buy some cat grass seeds for my cat to chew on when they sprout, since the old one she had has died. ...I'm also looking into buying a set of dumbbells. Probably those that save space such as Powerblocks. But they're pricey. I'm looking into cheaper alternatives.

You can get them just about anywhere. Only problem is it's impossible to know which brands to trust. Amazon has a big selection. Some brands seem better than others but of course all they have to do is put a lot of effort into presentation.

Right now I'm just taking plain old D3 from Costco. I have no idea if it's doin anything.
Yeah, vitamins have always been a bit of a problem to choose. So many brands, different ingredients for each, and with me not being a scientist to properly know terms, I think I'll just go for some high pill count/low cost combo.

Well, they're also not regulated the way medicine is so that just makes everything worse. They can basically say anything they want. They can make a very pretty package and extoll the virtues of their company and how all their ingredients are wholesome and natural and non-gmo and Kosher and termite free and not radioactive from being made in China in the pit of a retired uranium mine. But really, they don't have to prove any of it and if you can't prove otherwise, you just have to take their word for it. No one will hold them accountable for any lies unless they get caught.
Well crap. Maybe I should have asked for a refill on my prescription, perhaps those from the brand "Rugby" are better...
... and I found that they can be bought on amazon. :confused: I hope for the best.

Sawing wood is for the dogs. But perhaps I simply need a new handsaw, as this one is ancient and has been sitting in a closet for years. I'm still learning. It wasn't not that long ago that I learned that you can glue wood hehe.

Sisters talking loudly about strange smells, cats barging in and running onto the table (little sister got a new kitten), trying to juggle different tools in limited space... I wish I had a workshop.

To post or to not to post... someone in my position should not be searching for one of these things, but I really want one. Bewitched over an instrument I can't even play comfortably... and I tend to practice at night. I'm sure nobody wants to hear such a thing when they're sleeping. I might as well post the "ad", since I have already written it. I'm not paying around 1500 bucks for a used, discontinued device. With a ton of luck, someone might sell one for lower. I might have to post on other websites too. I heard Facebook has a sort of marketplace. I gave a range of the price I am willing to pay, after combing through the internet for previous ones that have sold. Just need to be careful of scams. It will be my first time doing such a thing. It'll be nice to buy something for myself for my upcoming birthday, but I am not expecting anyone to contact me. Honestly, this all makes me want to come out with my own brand of digital accordion, one that is more affordable. One that is tailored to those that want to practice quietly, with an emphasis on feeling as close to the real thing as possible. No fancy stuff.

I am browsing around amazon to purchase my first real phone. I wonder if an android phone around the 200$ price range has good microphone and picture quality. All I know is that it must be at least as good as the phone that my sister gave me that has lost a lot of its battery power (iPhone SE 1st Generation a1662). I'm comparing the technical specifications. I will also have to start paying for its service to actually make calls and text and such, I think.

Actually, I am going on a sort of shopping spree on amazon. I'm buying some sweatbands, earbuds, and a hair clipper kit as well, to try and trim my hair in a neat way instead of blindly hacking away every once in a while with scissors.
