The one thing at the top of my list is my bathtub. I absolutely adored my bathtub. It was a deep soak tub with a wide ledge all around it and I could surround myself with candles.

I have broken several bones in both legs due to my osteopenia and my ability to trip and fall and they hurt all the time. The one thing that could take away the pain and ache inside was soaking in Epsom salt and letting my legs float until the pain went away.

Now, whenever a campground has a hot tub by the pool, I utilize it and go soak my legs and let them float for a while. Not very many campgrounds that we stay in have this.

I miss my deep soak tub.
