In summer, it has cooled our front room and given us privacy. This spring we woke each morning to a robin sitting on its tallest branch and singing his heart out as the blossom unfurled and the bees buzzed. I now have four of them, and am considering attaching metal strips to everything I own so I can fully transition to cloud storage. I kind of look forward to using it, which is ridiculous, but it does mean that I rarely lose my keys any more (or leave the house without them, as it’s on the wall right next to the front door). I bought it on a whim in the middle of the night: it sticks to the wall and looks cute, and when you chuck your keys at it, it just snatches them up with its fascinatingly strong magnet.
But the thing that made a significant difference was a cheap, magnetic key holder that looks like a cloud. I tried expensive solutions to this problem, such as Bluetooth-tracker tiles that attach to key rings and wallets and remotes, but they never seem to work when you need them. I have wasted a cumulative 400 hours of my life searching for things before I leave the house, subjecting my family to increasingly enraged self-talk: “Where’s your bag? What did you do with it? Why are you like this?”. Well, misplaces things: the object I’ve lost always turns up, usually 30 minutes after I have finally, grudgingly bought a replacement at annoying expense.
