GTKY What can't you live without?

Aside from necessities, what one thing could you not go a day without?

Probably my cell phone, as sad and addicted to it as it sounds. I'm on it constantly.

@meggyme Same here! Also, coffee.

@purpleteacher82 I'm a hot mess without coffee too.

Right on board with cell phone & coffee......... oh boy!

Books and cats.

Also my phone and coffee. And I’ll add chocolate since the other two have been said.

My birkenstocks. I even wear them indoors in the winter

Cheesy alert: my husband

Other stuff: the Internet. I don't care if it is my phone or computer.

It’s super cheesy, but I can’t go a single day without my kid. I traveled out of state for work a few months back, and I was only gone a few nights, but it was sooooo hard. I literally cried.

I know, I’m a cornball!

Another one who can't live without the internet. We cut the cord this summer and in the middle of the switch we were without internet for a day.  I was lost. 

Other then that, I'd say chocolate. I'm pretty sure I have something chocolatey every day even if it's just a small bite.

A bathtub and a dishwasher. I spent too many years without both and I’m never going back! 

ETA: washer and dryer too! So glad my laundromat days are behind me.

I love my cell phone but I can do without it. I would’ve said coffee, but I’ve not been able to stand it recently.
I guess my camera. I am a bird watcher and if I saw a cool bird and didn’t have my camera, I would be soooo sad! 
My favorites are great blue herons.

Another vote for a phone - lol.  I'm always on it.  I'd also have to say my family, whenever I'm in the house alone I wander around not having a clue what to do with myself. It's actually pretty boring.  I crave alone time (when they are all driving me crazy) but then don't want to be alone when they finally leave me alone!  If that makes any sense at all.

Lip balm - - I will unconsciously pick at dry lips without lip balm

Another +1 for phone/Internet.

@JLaVO888 - I'm with you on the washer and dryer!  Hauling laundry to my parent's or the laundromat before I owned a house was terrible!

I’m another cornball with my husband and my kid! We went without him on a cruise in May and I was an anxious mess!

nothing new, but internet and chocolate for me!  Also cheese.

I’m the same. My husband and son. I’d give up all material items for those two.

Ok, this is going to sound ridiculous, but the thing I could never live without is (drumroll)...

Ice cubes.

Coffee! If my doctor told me to quit coffee or die tomorrow I would have to think a second. 

LOL 

We turned our internet off for the summer and will resume in August when school starts, but with an extremely slow speed only used for school assignments. I no longer use Facebook (Although I love Instagram), and I don't eat sugar, so chocolate isn't a draw for me anymore.

Oh boy...my daughter, my dog, my phone and my bed!

Phone/internet and coffee for me as well! Trying to cut back on caffeine has been the hands down the most difficult diet adjustment for me during this pregnancy. No alcohol? No problem. No coffee though...ugh!

I have chronic migraines and had to stop my botox treatments.  My ob actually wants me to drink caffeine to manage my headaches.  The alternative are unsafe drugs so I'll take it.

@violetmarie61516 I drank moderate amounts of caffeine with DD and she came out just fine, or at least I think so. It was also the only thing that would help with my headaches. I wasn't even a caffeine drinker before my pregnancy.

Kids, Phone, internet and tweezers i'm just to darn hairy

@violetmarie61516 sorry you have to deal with migraines! I get them but am very fortunate in how rarely I get them. I still drink caffeine (full disclosure: had a latte this morning) but I have cut back a lot to no more than 100mg per day and I try not to have any at all most days. It's just a personal choice; I know everyone is different with different needs. Migraines are awful! I hope the caffeine is enough to help you through them!
