Can’t Live Without

Posted on February 6, 2012 Written by Tonya

After I filmed this, I realized I CLEARLY left off a few very important items that I can’t live without: (in no particular order) caffeine, chap stick and exercise, but I enjoyed my guest star so much, I stayed with this version. Can you blame me?

Vlog Talk
This post is for Vlog Talk. The prompt I chose was from December 15, 2011, #3). I couldn’t make it through the day without these 3 items. What are they? Show us what they are and tell us why.

    Oh, he’s too cute! I can’t live without my phone either. Or my charger. Or carmex. Or caffeine. And I totally get the pink-in-a-sea-of-blue thing!

      I get so tired of blue!! Sigh.

    Is that wallet the size of a VW or just an optical illusion? Ha! I swear it looks like it is 3/4 the size of Lucas! I can’t live without my iTunes, Evian water and my Woobie. Yes, I’ll admit it. I’m thirtysomething and still sleep every-single-night with my security blanket.

    Honorable mention: Sharpie markers.

      Oh, Sharpie markers are the bomb!

      Evian, on the other hand, gives me a tummy ache.

      My wallet rocks… it’s a Hobo International and I all caps LOVE it!

    Oh my heart, he is a love isn’t he?

      His timing was so perfect, I HAD to go with this take. 🙂

    Great vlog! Your Lucas is such a doll. I have a Lucas, too. Aren’t they just the best?

    p.s. I can’t live without my iPhone, or charger, or coffee, or my Lucas, too.

    • Tonya says

      February 7, 2012 at 8:59 pm

      I’m not a coffee drinker, but other than that, we are soul sisters!

      Where did you get the name Lucas from? My husband and I met in Cabo San Lucas and that’s why we name our son it. 🙂

        I love how you chose the name Lucas! I have always liked the name and when I was pregnant & looked up the meaning I was sold. The meaning I found was “one who brings light.”

    He is such a cutie! I can’t live without my iPhone either!!

    • Tonya says

      I would imagine sooner rather than later there will be such a thing as a 12 Step Program to detach from overuse of iPhone. Hey, that might be a good blog post.

    I loved seeing Lucas! Of course my iPhone is on my list of items I can’t live without.

    • Tonya says

      February 7, 2012 at 9:04 pm

      He’s my buddy… and his timing was too perfect not to go with this take. 🙂

      All Hail the iPhone!!

    Aw, Lucas!!! He’s adorable!

    I can’t live without my phone (sadly, just a Droid), tea and tissue paper! (I have a very snotty toddler at the moment)

    I am sure if I had a smartphone I would not be able to live without it 🙂

    He sure is a cutie!! Who would want to live without him?!?

    • Tonya says

      February 7, 2012 at 9:05 pm

      Some days I can’t remember my life without him. Some days.

    He’s adorable!! The three things I can’t live without: iPhone, charger, and herbal tea.

    • Tonya says

      February 7, 2012 at 9:05 pm

      Perfect, you can stay! 🙂

    Your costar is adorable. My phone is number one here too!

    • Tonya says

      February 7, 2012 at 9:05 pm

      Aren’t they just the very best time suckers, er I mean inventions ever?

    I’m so glad you’re joining us again this week! I would agree on the iPhone & charger – can’t live without either of those 2 items. I think I’d like my wallet more if I had money in it. 😉

    Lucas is such a doll! He looks so much older than six months ago!

    • Tonya says

      February 7, 2012 at 9:06 pm

      He’s growing up so fast!!

      And yes, that’s what I should have said about my wallet too… I could always use more green.

      Sigh.

    Defintiely the phone (& multiple chargers all over the house).

    Lip balm makes the cut.

    Sunglasses would be the third. I feel naked without them.

    Red is my favorite color but purple items have managed to slip into my wardrobe. I’ve never been a big fan of purple, but maybe it’s the need for something feminine…

    • Tonya says

      February 13, 2012 at 10:01 am

      Sunglasses… good call!

    Oooh I just want to eat him up!!!!!!

    My three: my Evo Shift (phone), my TV!!!!!! And Diet CF Coke 😉
    (and shoes and cupcakes…but U know that!!!!!!!!!! LOL)

    Xoxoxo

      Shoes and cupcakes… of course! 🙂

    Oh my gosh, I love him. Damn, that kid is cute. So nice to see him on camera.

    So nice to see you again too.

    • Tonya says

      February 13, 2012 at 10:02 am

      He’s a keeper for sure! Some days more than other. Sigh.
