A small thing, but sadly impossible thing that would make life better

Jennynana shall we do a swap?

SusieWong - a self cleaning bathroom is within your grasp. I remember reading an article some years ago about a chap who trained giant slugs from the garden to live in his bathroom and eat all the dirt at night. I believe his wife divorced him a short time later...

The ability to get to sleep easily and sleep through the night. It would be transformative!

I really want someone to invent something when when I'm in a library or book shop looking at the book spines and my head and neck and back are in weird positions.

I want something when I can stand up straight to look at the spines without twisting myself in to a painful curly wurly!

HA HA HA!

An ironing machine

I gave up ironing long ago - I find that it's not something I miss. Very little really needs an iron!

A cat that cleaned himself properly before jumping onto the bed - there are muddy pawprints on the duvet...

An electrified shopping trolley would make life easier. Using a trolley saves carrying heavy bags, but it is still a struggle pulling the thing up all the hills where I live. An attached platform with an electric motor would be a Godsend.

Sunshine every day and warmth (not too hot please) 🌞🌞

UGH!

4 day weekend 👏

A husband who would actually wear his hearing aids.

A face cream that actually removed lines and wrinkles!

A brain that can work things out without having to Google it. X

Can I be "greedy" and have 3 wishes:

- Every aspect of my body at optimum level and nothing wrong with either its health or its looks. So 30 years old and none of the "womens issues" I had back then would about do that.

- My house magically transformed into exactly as required (ie the missing 3rd bedroom, garage, utility room, 2nd bathroom, etc) and being self-cleaning

- Able to eat/drink/booze whatever I wanted without putting on weight/getting health problems from any chemicals they'd added to it/etc.

I was about to say something similar. Ironing is unnecessary and a terrible waste of time.

A husband who listens.

If only!

Can I have two? The strength and energy I had when I was younger. The mind is willing but the body is not able.

Not to always want chocolate after I have eaten a sensible healthy diet conscious meal.

A no-fly zone over my house and garden that only applies to seagulls and pigeons would be good.

I need it to apply to crows and magpies as well!

Rain all night every night and sunshine all day every day.

No anxieties and able to do everything I did at 35!

Amen to that.
And a self-cleaning house !!

A fairy to put away things after my husband

Gwyllt, yes I'd like one of those too, preferably one that would also turn out lights and close doors and drawers!

Lol sounds like a plan ,not sure you would enjoy having a lively 3 year old jumping around at 6am 🤣 and changing nappies again lol x

Don't worry I have GC younger than 3 so still doing nappy changes. At least a 3 year old flinging themself on you is joyous, spending over an hour trying to get a teenager out of bed is anything but joyous.

I guess both start to be a bit annoying after a time.
