Well?

Orthopedic house shoes. Comfortable as hell. Helped me when I felt plantar fasciitis coming on.

Sony noise cancelling earphones. When you gotta work with the kids running around the house.

Full size fridge for the garage. I have no idea how I went this long without one. Just mentioned to my wife that it may be in my top 10 purchases of all time.

Herman Miller Aeron for the house (stole it for $100)
11x17” printer (they were all back ordered for months by the following week)

Desk and work chair for my bedroom have been awesome.

Also, picked up a gf for sex and stuff. Solid investment.

My budget was blown on home improvement stuff so I didn't buy many toys, but getting a couple 27" monitors in late March for my "temporary" office turned out to be a lifesaver.

Oh, and convincing a buddy of mine he deserved to upgrade his OLED TV and that I'd give it a good home on my patio that he could visit anytime worked out well.

Life changing. So glad I got that instead of a new grill.

A pool.  Technically, we started right before the pandemic, but we put water in it Mother's Day, so we had all summer to swim.  Worth every damn penny.

Buddy of mine who owns a fencing company gave me a bunch of old fence panels.   I built about 10 raised bed planters (sold several of them ) and started my first real garden.  On thanksgiving Sunday, I harvested and vacuum packed almost 60 bell peppers (after I had gotten at least that many over the summer).  Was so fun to build, plant and harvest a garden in my first true attempt.  My grandad had a nearly 2 acre garden that fed his family year round as well as supplied bartering for  his milk, newspaper, auto maintenance, and other things.   

A Nintendo Switch.  Not a huge gamer, but it has soaked up some hours.

Interesting. Looks like a 10/22 platform. Didn’t know Ruger had that in their lineup.  I haven’t been paying attention.

I’ll post some.   Keep in mind that I decided to make all of these solely out of the wood on hand.  Bought no other boards, and even repurposed many of the nails/screws.  They’re not beautiful, but they work.   4 of them are in the back.   I gave 2 to my mom & M-I-L, and sold a few others.

He said gf not wife so it’s kinda believable.

I suggest you build a spreadsheet for expenses, maintenance, and depreciation.

Guns, an RV and an old F350 7.3L with ranch bumpers, lift kit and oversized tires for a song.*

Home gym in former kids' playroom. Wife dropped membership elsewhere so will pay for itself ... eventually.

I like that you divorced the kids. Living the dream.

Impressive you located all those weights given how hard to find they were last year

I see that you paid extra for the "incongruously dark nipples surprise package" upgrade.

To be fair, the youngest is now a junior in HS, so the playroom was wasted space.

Had some of the smaller plates (2.5, 5, 10, 25) already. Rest was done over time, and augmented by borrowing some plates and a bar from our office gym (which was closed down for most of the time). Now have acquired enough not to need them.

Haha nice I did the same thing and now have a franken-set of plates that I found thru various outlets like Amazon, a local fitness store, and Walmart.com. Not sure when I'm going to return to the gym even with the vax
