10 Things I Can’t Live Without

My iPad: My iPad goes everywhere with me. I try to read any chance I get and this is where my books live. Plus I can get work done, and just keep things together. I also LOVE this case.

My Glasses: So I had to get new glasses recently because my vision is terrible. I got Polaroid glasses and had my eye Dr add the blue light blocking to it. It has helped my migraines a ton and well they are just cute.

Coffee: You know I love coffee. Does this need any sort of explanation? I have been making all of my lattes at home lately and I have to say I am enjoying it. Although, I still do love to swing by Starbucks from time to time!

Ice Breakers Mints: Weird right? The last few months I have become addicted. You guys they are just that good.

My Fitbit: After I had Liam I made it my mission to have 10K steps a day. NO MATTER WHAT. Sometimes this means I walk around our house at 9 PM but I get my 10K steps. So my Fitbit and I have become quite close.

Netflix: When Liam was a newborn I was up so often during the night that Neflix kept me company. The early days of his life when Andrew was at work I also watched A LOT of Netflix. I love a good binge and sometimes it’s nice to have something familiar on in the background while I work.

A Good Tumbler: I try to drink water all day long. So having a huge tumbler I can easily carry around the house, take in the car, etc is so great. This one is my fav and if you like infused water I use this.

Exercise: I can’t live without workouts. I need them for my mentally stability. I have been struggling with PPD and PPA since having Liam and that has really mad me feel so much better.

Comfies: Comfy clothes you guys. As soon as I shower each day I want comfies. These joggers and a these tee’s are my favs right now.

My family duh: Of course I can’t live without them! Liam and Andrew are the lights of my life. My mom and I talk about 10 times a day and my dad is my biggest fan. I love my in laws and extended family. Plus my friends (my family by choice) are the bees knees!

These are the things I can’t live without!

What is ONE thing you can’t live without?

  1. My glasses and my contacts! My eyes are so bad I literally can’t see the expression of the person right in front of me, haha. Blind as a bat!

  2. I guess it’s hard to choose just one, but if I had to it would be my Ipad as well, since it has books, Netflix to binge and skype to keep in touch with friends and family. I have to say though, I prefer Kindle since I keep getting distracted by FB and email when I read on my Ipad… I feel like I have an attention span of a hamster these days… more so after becoming a mom 😉

  3. Very hard to choose, but many people right now in certain countries are having to make that choice. When you have to flee your home in the face of nature gone crazy, there are only a few things you can take with you. And I suspect that wouldn’t include your cuttlebug and accessories to make home-made cards! But I’d hate to live without that!

    Coffee is a given. lol My lap top is something I would hate to give up. I have a mini Ipad, a Kindle Paperwhite and a Kindle Fire, and I read on the Kindles, look at recipes on the Ipad but use my lap top for everything else. I am an old dog who doesn’t learn new tricks very well.

    Definitely some kind of caffeine for me. I’d say my phone above most other non-living things. It has my calendar, assignments, books, everything on it. I should really do something about that. I also can’t go anywhere without some kind of lip balm or chapstick.

    It’s so hard to choose just one thing but I couldn’t live without books… so I guess I would choose my iPad since I can get as much to read on there as I want. But living without friends and family would be impossible of course!

  22. Yes! I agree on so many of these. I got a FitBit for Christmas last year and now it is such a big motivator for me to get moving and get enough sleep!

  28. I had never heard about glasses like that, but I really need to do some research on them! I can’t wear contacts because of allergies and even with anti-glare my glasses still sometimes give me headaches. I’m so glad you mentioned that!

    It’s hard to pick just one thing I couldn’t live without. Recently I’ve become extremely attached to my dressing gown and slippers so I’ll go with those.

    Coffee is always a must have at least in our household! It helps me wake up in the morning and keeps me going during those long days.

    Shame to admit Starbucks has me hooked like crack…lol! Love a good cup of joe in the morning. Netflix too! So much to binge watch on a lazy weekend. From a business perspective, love how they are giving so much opportunity to up and coming content curators!
