I know this isn’t exactly what you asked, but a while ago I lost all my stuff in a fire, and I definitely missed stuff like my expensive gaming PC, but the stuff I missed, like, the hardest, were little practical objects like a screwdriver that was really good at getting stripped screws out and the mattress that I had before that I had gotten a really good price on.

Now whenever I get something like that in my life again, I recognize so much more quickly that it’s an object that matters in that same way. The other day I found a dollar tree bin that fits in a specific drawer really well that means my spare batteries aren’t just in there free, and it’s such a nice upgrade
