    Another use for the plastic zippered pencil pouches....When I was the caregiver for my elderly mother, I attached one to the interior metal garage door. In it I had a list of my mother's medications, business cards from her doctors, her duplicate medical card and copy of the medical power of attorney, etc. In the event of a medical emergency, it was easy to grap this packet and go.

    The hooks from DT go on ok, but they rip off the paint from the wall when you go to remove them. I’ve used 3M Command hooks for years, and know how to remove them cleanly (slowly, straight down). That didn’t work with the DT hooks.

    "Minimalism is a scam invented to sell more less".
    And I am saying that as a minimalist. It is so easy to fall into the trap of buying more things to "be" more minimalist. But the most minimalist things, are the things you don't buy.
