Oscar USB hub


Scrabbling around on the floor is not something I ever wanted to do much of before I got fibromyalgia, but is now an impossibility.  A decent USB hub is therefore an essential in my book, as so much now uses those sockets.  I need to have something on my desk, in easy view, and preferably something that can charge my phone and multitask with other hardware.  Oscar is such a cute way of usefully doing this, and environmentally friendly at the same time, that there was no way I could leave him out.

Voodoo charms


As a neuropathy sufferer, amongst other stuff, I like the idea of having something to get some revenge back on.  Lets face it, it feel like someone is sticking pins (or swords) in me, so a mobile voodoo ninja that can hang from my mobile phone with his/her own pin for me to jab back when the stabbing starts might just brighten my day.  Thanks again to firebox!

Sometimes you just need comfort


So here are two options - the good old squishie cushion is always a good bet, but firebox, always a favourite have come up with something much more cute and flexible - the Zoobies lots of cuddly fun, and they turn into pillows or soft blankets which seem ideal for travelling with at any age if you get aches and pains and need some gentle warmth.
