Do you think something like this would work? I have a cover for the back. The one that comes from AI directly

I already have this on the back, but was concerned with the front.

Good morning all! So yesterday, after settling in and having this for brakfast
IMG_4071.jpeg

I dozed off while watching something on tv . With my earbuds in. Woke up and the earbuds had fallen out with the right hand one nowhere to be found, thinking my cat absconded with it. Ordered a relatively inexpensive pair on Amazon . Then after that I decided to relax and play a game on my MacBook Pro. Second surprise of the day. Computer got real sluggish so I saw it was at 2% even though it was plugged in. Checked battery health like Google suggested and it’s apparently on its last legs so I’ll have to look for another, most likely used or refurbished.
Now here’s the funny part. I came home, had breakfast, came to my room and fed kitty and added small doses to the tank got changed and then noticed the lost earbud sitting in plain view iron top of the comforter and it was not there when I went to work. Well I still have the other pair as back up but it’s nice to have the others for sure.
