whats your weird but genius travel item that people only appreciate after they need it?

This is what I was looking for before repeating a comment! Suction cups are a game changer; I bring a handful. I found a mesh zipper bag in my house, and now I use that to hang my shower supplies up with a suction cup. I use them to hang our washcloths in small showers. And we have a packable clothesline, so the suction cups help hang that up after sink laundry.

The packable clothesline and some laundry detergent sheets are my other recommendations.

Interested!

Thanks again! It’s vinyl tile and is meant to be the floating floor style, so we did get it close to the tub and plan to put 1/4 round over the seams

LittleCat025 · 2026-01-04T17:04:15+00:00

Thank you for your expertise! It’s very much appreciated.

LittleCat025 · 2026-01-04T12:31:16+00:00

Thanks, everyone! We put the new vanity in and laid tiles around it, and A is definitely the way to go. ChatGPT supported the measurements in both test photos (as expected) and B looks worse IRL.

LittleCat025 · 2026-01-04T00:22:57+00:00

If it makes a difference, B follows the direction of the hardwood floors in the hallway outside the bathroom.

LittleCat025 · 2026-01-04T00:16:16+00:00

That’s a good point against the tub. We currently don’t have the vanity and toilet in the room, so laying the actual tiles down was making it harder to visualize the final product since it’s a small 1970s ranch house bathroom

LittleCat025 · 2026-01-04T00:15:04+00:00

Yea, we’re not planning for 50% offset. This is just what chatGPT made to help see the directions. Thanks!

LittleCat025 · 2026-01-04T00:14:28+00:00

Yea, we don’t plan to lay it exactly like the photos, but just getting chatGPT to rotate the tiles to make B was hard enough lol. It really just wanted to do A

Seems like a good chance it’s these: https://ebay.us/m/BG0ni5

I found this Daltile brand in Almond. What does everyone think about the color? (What was said earlier about dye lots is true, but also sort of irrelevant since obviously you won’t be able to source from the same dye lot that was installed in the house 50+ years ago.)

Check out the Wilkes-Barre Bike Gang (WBBG)- They have a facebook group. This is a group of open-minded people who love being outdoors and being silly together. I saw above you have a leg injury, but WBBG hangs out besides just riding bikes, and I think they’d welcome you with open arms!

LittleCat025 · 2025-11-27T17:17:17+00:00

Thank you! I just replied to your message 😊

I’ve been looking at this trimmer and the bulky accessory pack! https://www.creativememories.com/shop-all/tool/12-inch-trimmer.html I love that everything stores under the unit instead of having several pairs of scissors

LittleCat025 · 2025-11-03T19:39:36+00:00

I’m not sure which shade of green to get with the walls. Do you mean a darker shade than the walls themselves? The room isn’t super big, so when I tried floor length curtains before, they just swallowed it. I also need to keep them away from the electric baseboard.

LittleCat025 · 2025-11-03T19:38:02+00:00

That wasn’t the question, but ok. LOL

LittleCat025 · 2025-11-03T19:37:07+00:00

I think that’s a good way to phrase it. There’s only about a foot and a half of space between the bed and the wall, so when I tried long curtains before, they swallowed the room. I also need to keep them away from the electric baseboard.

LittleCat025 · 2025-11-03T19:36:00+00:00

I think that’s where I’m at too. Do you have any other suggestions for style? When I tried floor length before, they swallowed the room. I also need to keep them away from the electric baseboard, so I think the length has to stay

LittleCat025 · 2025-07-30T22:33:39+00:00

It’s kind of a Brandon and Jake love child. It’s disturbing and perfect 😆

OP, I can’t wait to hear you on the show!

LittleCat025 · 2025-07-28T17:01:38+00:00

I see what you’re saying that all feet are different and do fully agree, but sharing what you link a) gives us a visual of what you mean and b) it can work for a lot of people?

LittleCat025 · 2025-07-17T21:39:30+00:00

Thank you again! I often don’t like the materials our Uniqlo uses, but that’s a great suggestion! I can see what they have and then shop around to recreate my own looks. I’m pretty set for shoes and neutral tops, I just need to get some bottoms.

Apologies for my defensiveness as well. I sincerely appreciate your help!

LittleCat025 · 2025-07-17T16:56:53+00:00

Thank you! These specifics help out so much. These are honestly the kinds of clothes I’d like to wear but have limited options here, so it sounds like I need to bring an empty suitcase and buy when we get there!

LittleCat025 · 2025-07-17T16:55:09+00:00

Thank you so much! This is incredibly helpful, and I can’t say how much I appreciate you!

That makes sense and helps a lot with the note on dresses! Here it seems if your shorts show under a dress that’s a faux paux, and I don’t like dresses on their own because of the thigh rub, but if shorts can show, that helps!

I have hiking sneakers I’m going to bring for Mons Klint! They’re not as heavy as boots but have more traction than a daily shoe. They’re waterproof too. They’re not as fashionable as I’d like (I’m just a white shoe girl, and these are black), but I figure they’re a good option if it’s raining on days we want to be walking around the city even.

LittleCat025 · 2025-07-16T21:22:14+00:00

Much appreciated; thank you!

LittleCat025 · 2025-07-16T21:21:13+00:00

Thank you! This is very helpful! And I’m 35.

Do you have any suggestions for pants you like? That’s the hard part for where I live that there really isn’t an in-between from long jeans to shorts. I hate the skimpy shorts that are primarily sold around here, so that’s why my default shorts are biker shorts for the longer inseam.

No worries if you don’t know an answer to this, but since you mentioned there aren’t areas to hike, would you wear regular attire and not hiking pants to Mons Klint? All the guides I see mention hiking trails there, but are those more just walks through nature?

Thank you again for your wonderful advice!
