Default Things That Make Life Easier

I've got several things that make my life a little easier. What do you use or do that makes your day a little easier to get through?

I use a Swiffer Sweeper all the time. I have wood floors everywhere except the bathrooms and bedrooms and cat hair/dust/dirt show up all the time. Using the mechanical Swiffer Seeeper is so easy, lets me pickup all the dirt and debris by just pushing the lightweight sweeper around the rooms. Easy to empty and put back together. I have two and one is always on the charger and one is always ready to use!

I bought a long handled "grabber" to help me pick things up that I have dropped or that I can't reach. Prevents me from having to bend over and possibly lose my balance.

I've started to order some of my groceries through Schwan's. Not everything and they don't carry milk, eggs, bread or personal items. But there are several items that I like and having them delivered to my door is great. Alice.com is another site that has good prices and a big selection of items (similar to Amazon). I also started ordering my cat food online. I got a killer deal last time because they had free shipping so I stocked up. Free shipping is a rarity with cat food because it's so heavy but they had a one-day special and I used it!

I installed grab bars in my shower. They help me maintain my balance in the shower and make me feel less anxious when I'm in there.

I'm sure there are more but what have you done to make your life easier?
