Ikea Kura beds.
Why will they not ship!!

(I also want Alex dressers. Maybe I’ll take my Juneteenth holiday to drive round trip 6 hours to go to Ikea. I think my kids still have daycare that day.)

Oh, also a Tarot journal.

I don’t actually read my Tarot cards!

Based on my history with journals and planners…this seems unlikely. I don’t think I’ve ever used more than 2 weeks of one…

Origami in the form of a kayak. Or to put it another way, a fold-up kayak. Or maybe two of them, if I’m honest. I want someone to go with me! https://www.orukayak.com/?fbclid=IwAR0jHjodHeNoxL6veIkhjHG5E2ZzBq1Kn9AeFHTpnBmONfIj9ahSquBkoSc

That is perfect for me. Thanks for finding it!

Exactly. They are perfect! Until you see what they cost. Womp-womp.

Have you looked at inflatable kayaks? I know some people who are very happy with them. They aren’t like “floaties” even though they inflate. I don’t know their price though.

I own two! They are two-seater ones and they work well. It’s just that they are very heavy to carry when they are all folded up in their bags, and then you have to inflate them once you get to where you are going. And then they are wet, and you have to try to dry them a little and fold them all back up into the bags and then carry them back to your car. I find it all annoying enough that I rarely take them out. They were much cheaper than origami kayak.

Instead of being a responsible adult, I drank champagne and test dyed my hair rose gold. I don’t think it’s really going to show up and now I want rainbow hair.

Yeah, that doesn’t sound fun.
Our garage wall is filled with kayaks. (We own a single and a tandem, I suspect we will get another tandem). They take up a lot of space. I can carry one on my Elantra though.

I really want a bigger fridge. Something like this. Mr Pug is insistant that the fridge we have is fine and we just need to manage our food better. :roll_eyes: I’d really like to do batch cooking and it just can’t happen with the fridge we have.

I highly recommend a fridge with the freezer on the bottom. It makes meal prepping MUCH easier because you can fit so much more in it! Having adjustable shelves that can hold bigger container of food is nice too. I really wanted a french door one like this and at our last house the niche for it wasn’t big enough so we got one that was just one big door on top. It was cheaper than a french door and surprisingly I actually liked that one better than our current fridge, which is like the one you posted. Ours also has a drawer in between the fridge part and the freezer part and my feeling about that is “meh.” I don’t think it’s worth the extra cost.

The advantage to the french door that I did not consider when I purchased mine is that it takes up much less isle space when you open the door, which is very nice in my Tiny kitchen. So I support this dream!

I’ve seen those ones with the extra drawer. I have a friend that fills hers with all cheese lol.

oh that is a good point. I think I’m going to have to wait until either the fridge breaks or we have another little one. No way will it be big enough for 4 people.

We’ve had two fridges with the freezer on the bottom, and i do like them, but I think you give up refrigerator space and gain freezer space.

We are going to have to buy a basement fridge this year, because this fridge is entirely inadequate for 6 people.

I also love them because then you can access the fridge without Toddler Help ™. Whereas my side by side model, Latte is constantly extracting stuff from the door and prevents me from closing it. We’ve had many a meltdown because we’ve been scooted away from the fridge…
