Oops, I messed that up! I marked TV in the poll, because I was thinking "What could you most live without" ... instead of least. Did that make sense?
I don't even have a TV, so obviously I can live without it! I should have marked computer ... although books would be right up there, too!
When I moved from Colorado to Wyoming, we moved in the winter. My dad was concerned about bad roads, and I had to be out of my house by Jan 1. So, he decided to rent a U-Haul and drive down and get all my stuff .... on Thanksgiving! Well, what could I say, he was nice enough to help me out.
So, he took everything we owned in a big U-Haul on Thanksgiving. We could only keep what would fit in my Geo Prism ... along with me, my son in his carseat ... and four dogs. Needless to say, it wasn't much .... two pillows, two blankets, a tiny bucket of toys for my son and a week's worth of clothes. I was freaking out! That was ALL that was in my house!
But, you know, after a few days, we didn't even care. We went to the library, the park, we took the dogs for a walk, we watched the stars. It was actually really, really nice. It is true ... all you need is food, shelter and clothing .... and a library!
"We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam
"We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle
"All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien
