| HourCar Because sometimes walking or biking just won't cut it |
| Washer/Dryer Sure I have to use ones that are coin-op and in the basement of my building Still, it beats lugging the laundry to the laundromat OR WORSE, washing our clothes by hand. |
| My smartphone. 'Nuff said |
| I don't know what I'd do without the Internet. I use it for lesson planning, running tips, shopping, information, communication, etc. |
| Handy 3-step stool allows me to reach even the highest shelves in my kitchen. |

I've never seen the "hour car" before, but it looks like it's perfect for those that only need it for a bit!
ReplyDeleteYes, it definitely works for us.
DeleteI love that "hour car" thing! I saw it when I went up north. I think it's a great idea!
ReplyDeleteWe love it! It's totally saves us lots of $$.
DeleteI've never seen hour car either. We had zip car in college and I think it's something similar. It's such a neat idea.
ReplyDeleteYes, very similar to the zip car. I think HourCar is only in the Twin Cities.
DeleteLove that you walk or bike if yo can!! And there is a whole new world up there once a girl owns a step stool!
ReplyDeleteLOL! A whole new world, indeed.
DeleteYes...were we ever smart before our phones became so intelligent? And the washer/dryer fade into the woodwork but we couldn't do without them, could we?
ReplyDeleteNope. Definitely couldn't survive without the ole washer and dryer.
DeleteI so need a handy 3-step stool, me being barely 5 feet tall. :) I missed biking. It was fun reading your list.
ReplyDeleteAva
Yes, the 3-step stool is essential. Or lower ceiling/cabinets, which I would hate.
DeleteI also have our version of the Hour Car, Autoshare. Completely a life saver sometimes and more eco friendly (and cheaper) than owning.
ReplyDeleteFirst recipe for you, not really a training thing, more of a less guilty indulgence when you need a boost, easy apple and pear crisp.

Yes and Yes! It's been a real life (and moola) saver for us.
DeleteThanks for the recipe post; I'll check it out.
The laundry mat is such a not fun place, hurray for the washer and dryer! I love how the internet and smart phones have made their way on to everyone's lists. What did we do just a few years back without these wonderful things? haha :) Great list!
ReplyDeleteI know. It's amazing to think back even to when I was in high school and wonder how we did it. :)
DeleteHour car sounds like a great concept. I can see how a service like that can make life easier especially for people living in big cities.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm not sure how well it would work living in a small town.
DeleteI did washer/dryer, too. I can't imagine life without them!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'd even know how to live without them.
