What's one small thing you've done to make your life easier? (lemm.ee)

For example, I 3d printed a box over my outlet to protect my cables from my bed pushing against it. In addition, my cables never fall to the floor so they're much easier to grab.

I bought 20 pairs of identical socks.Now every sock matches and makes putting away laundry easier.

Until the first few break down and you need to buy new ones, just to realize they are different from the ones you have by now (or discontinued outright).

Bold of you to assume that folk care if their socks match

Yep, I wish Darn Tough had socks that didn't look like the ugliest mosaic ever.

I did this too :D I used to have 20 pairs of non-identical black socks, which made matching hard and it felt wrong to wear socks of slightly different type or size. Much easier now

I keep getting socks for Christmas though, which I never wear cause they'd mess up the simplicity
