a new tab for Max

Lenovo Tab M10 FHD Plus (2nd Gen)

It was time for a replacement for Max’s old tab. Also with classes being online, it was inconvenient for me to loan my laptop to him.

As a replacement for his older Lenovo tab, we got a Lenovo Tab M10 FHD Plus (2nd Gen) for ₹ 18990.

The specs were kinda okay for us.

We also got a cover for the tab at ₹ 799

High Back Office Chair

As #wfh continues through end of July, I don’t think I’ll be getting back to office anytime soon. The only thing I missed being in office was the chair. I had a tough time without a proper chair at home. After a month of sittingin hard plastic chairs or the bed, I started having my tailbone ache a lot. Once the lockdown was lifted, I went around to find some comfortable chairs. After some searching, I bought this at Bathra Furniture for ₹ 6700.
It comes with a nice removable headrest and also adjustable support for the back.

My FitBit strap came apart a week back. This is my second replacement band for my FitBit Ionic. Given the #covid-19 situation, getting a replacement band was tough. Most of the sellers had shut shop and no one makes bans for Ionic anymore. I saw a lot of bands for FitBit Charge and Versa though.

TASLAR Two Toned Perforated Adjustable Wristband Strap Soft Silicone Band Compatible with Fitbit Ionic (Black Gray)

A replacement band for my FitBit Ionic for ₹ 699.

The first impression is this strap looks rubbery. The process of tightening the strap is ridiculous. They could’ve made it a lot simpler.

Camlin Colour Pen Pencil with Lead Tube (Multicolour)

I got this to help in doing the fine sections of Escape to Shakespeare’s World colouring book. I bought this at Sekar Stores for ₹ 50. This was a blister pack with a single pen pencil with a box of 12 colour leads.

I’ve tried this perfume as an EDC  back in 2016 as part of a trial pack and I liked it. This time around, I saw Skinn had bought out a deodorant pack. Having used EDC for a few years, I wanted to change to a body spray.
