My all-time best Life Hacks

[Anonymous]

In any category; big or small. Anything that makes life better.

1) sleeping with a white noise machine; generally prioritizing sleep over almost anything else
2) packing my work lunch the night before AND making it something special/tasty that I will actually eat
3) never buying books or magazines. I'm a religious library-goer, and this has saved me a ton of money

Since when did the word "hack" become the word to use instead of "tip"? Hack sounds so violent.

Thanks, Earl!

Hack is annoyingly overused.

Hooks instead of bars to hang up towels in the bathroom and coats in the entryway. So small, yet such a big difference in things actually getting hung up. And if the entryway is clean, other messes don't sprout as fast.

One place to put keys. Always. Every time. Immediately after coming in the house.

Emergency key in a combination lock box outside the house

Subscribing to SOME magazines can be a good deal (Entertainment Weekly being one, and that is the only one I get and have for 20 years running).

1-Don't waste time or energy on being a jerk face
2-If you don't like something, just ignore/avoid it
3-if I comprehend the intended meaning, don't be a persnickety bore about word choices

I wear ear plugs on Metrobus. Drowns out the engine noise and other people's yammering conversations. It just puts me in a calmer mood on my commute.

Brush teeth in the shower in the a.m. Saves time. Yes, I always take my toothbrush out of the shower afterward.

Freeze extra coffee into ice cubes to use for iced coffee later.

Always make extra when I'm cooking to have for next day's lunch or to freeze.
