When I made the decision to go back to an Android smartphone after a brief vacation to Apple land this summer, my choices for a new phone were between the Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung Galaxy Note8, Pixel 2 XL, and the LG V30. I ruled out the Samsung devices because I’m not a fan of the
Inspired by Julie’s post about the solar system marbles, I have been searching for similar items. I found a vendor on Etsy that uses sterling silver wire and stone beads to create solar system jewelry, like this necklace. The necklace has a selectable length of 15.75″ to 19.7″.

Before fidget spinning was a worldwide phenomenon, people dealt with stress by using other methods that did not include a multi-colored 3-pronged spinner purchased from the gas station checkout line. Back in the day, we used ordinary clicky ink pens to fidget (and annoy our coworkers). If you miss those simpler times, you will rejoice
