Random orbital sander with dust collection ($69)
Available at: Home Depot

The only power sander we have is an old Black & Decker "mouse" sander from 20 years ago. It still works, and we have sanded a ridiculous amount of stuff with it. But it gets dust everywhere. Nowadays, sanders have dust collection. And it would be better to use a random orbital sander for larger areas and just the "mouse" for corners.

I'd like to get this Ryobi corded sander from Home Depot.

Long-sleeve shirt for running/hiking ($25)
Available at: Amazon

(I've put several of these on the list because I would like several different shirts.)

Almost all of my long-sleeved shirts for running and hiking are ones I got from races years ago. And it's time to stop wearing something on a hike that says "2010 Gasparilla Half Marathon," so it's time for a plain old shirt.

This one in "wine red" looks nice. I would need the Large size.

"Cat's paw" nail puller ($10-20)
Available at: Lowe's or any home improvement store

Our handyman had one of these, and we used it when we needed to demo the staircase. Sure, you can remove a nail with a hammer, but these claw-like nail pullers will help you when there's not enough room to maneuver your hammer or when the nail has been hammered flush with the wood surface (you can hammer the claw underneath the nail's head and then start pulling).

You can get these at any home improvement store, and they might just be called "claw nail puller" or "nail puller." Here's one from Lowe's. If there are options for how long it is, 9 or 10 inches is probably best (I want to make sure it's short enough to get in tight spaces).

Temperature gun ($15-30)
Available at: Home Depot, Lowes, or Amazon

I use one of these to check the temperature of my pizza stone. Mine's only a few years old but the handle is starting to get that sticky old plastic feeling. It still works, but it's a bit nasty.

You can find these in home improvement stores or on Amazon searching for "temperature gun," here's one (maybe the one I have) but there are many.

It also doubles as a laser pointer cat toy.
