Am I the only person who doesn't find humidifiers particularly useful?

I've tried several, from little personal desk humidifiers to large home units (mum gives me a home unit about every five years) and it seems like Slightly Higher Humidity is meant to do something for you health wise but it just doesn't for me. There's no particular change in my skin or breathing or whatever. I can't find anything anywhere, even on the Complaining About Things website (Reddit) about the idea that humidity just kind of isn't that awesome. Any complaints are about mold and bacteria if you don't clean them properly, which leads to equal amounts of talk about "well sure, thoroughly scrubbing a small appliance with vinegar daily is a pain but they're so helpful!"

But they don't actually seem that helpful to me. Is it just me and my dessicated flesh prison? I wouldn't mind if it was just "something I tried which didn't work", but I'm perplexed that everyone else seems to find them miraculous.

I mean, one, no way am I unplugging, emptying, scrubbing, refilling, and resetting this diva-ass machine daily or even less-than-weekly if that, I have too much ADHD. But two, if I did, for that amount of work that thing had better unchap my lips, fix my ADHD, and cook me a meal. It's not even doing one of those things.

Idk, a 6% increase in humidity with accompanying 10% increase in my chances of getting Legionnaires Disease just isn't worth the work.

Recent-ish Admin BT finds: electronics edition (various thrifts in the Boise, ID area)

The Splash Dance shower radio was tempting just for the vibes, but I don't think any of the local radio stations are worthy of showering with me.

Dry air

K, my husband, and Son have been getting cold after cold the last four or five weeks. K in particular was thinking that a humidifier in her room would help a lot at night, but I found that the filter in our old-but-still-functional humidifier was sort of . . fossilized. I was surprised and almost overjoyed to find that even though my humidifier is probably 20+ years old, filters for that model were still available.

I ordered some. They arrived. This evening I set it up, which took a bit of effort because the darned thing has been sitting in storage and it was dusty-yucky. I washed the pieces up, managed to lose one of them, hunted around the house in increasing frustration for a while, and eventually located the missing piece in a bedroom. Don't. Don't ask.

It is now humming mistily away in her bedroom, and hopefully she won't have a dry throat and nose tonight. A small triumph, but hey. I'll take it.

Most of my very limited energy today went to getting the woodcart filled and taking care of the wood stove because Husband is sick, helping K with moving hay to the goats, helping Roommate with his dogs while he was away from the house, and deadfiling old financial paperwork. There were fun things on my list at the beginning of the day - and then the un-fun things took over. Once again, I am wishing that I could set my own to-do list, and not hear "um, can you help me with" time and time again.
