    About Me Sunday: 10 Things I Can't Live Without

    My pal Jamie over at It's My Life recently tagged me in one of those 10 Things About Me posts and I have to admit, I really love participating in memes like this.

    I simply love getting to know my friends better - especially my blogging friends, because a lot of connection is lost by only "seeing" each other online. These memes where we share quirky information about ourselves? I love them! For instance, Jamie recently published his first ebook, Grande Plage on Kindle. That makes two friends of mine who have been self published this year...and while I am a little jealous that they've been so dedicated and have accomplished what I haven't - I am so incredibly happy and proud of them! The other friend is Lacey, who published Tangled Web earlier this year.

    So...10 Things I Can't Live Without?

    Let's get started! Oh - and these are not in order of importance, okay?

    1. My iPhone. Seriously, it is permanently attached to my hand and I could not function without it.


    2. My family. All of them: husband, daughter, parents, sisters, etc. I love my big, crazy but loving family!

    3. The ocean. I grew up in Miami and I am a true Florida girl. I need the ocean, or at least a pool, available to me at all times.


    4. Iced Coffee. I never drink hot beverages, but I became addicted to iced coffee last year and can't see NOT drinking it...


    5. My dogs. I never thought I'd be a dog person until I had Alaskan Malamutes and Shelties. I love my fur babies!


    6. Cable. I watch a sickening amount of television. I know that I should be ashamed of this, but I am not. I love TV!

    7. Mac Lip Glass. Yeah, I love that stuff! All the moisture of Chapstick but it actually makes me look pretty too.

    8. Black eye liner. Seriously, I can leave the house in Mac Lip Glass and a little black eye liner and feel like a million bucks!

    9. The Internet. Is that a given? It should be. As a blogger, I require the internet to run my business, but I also need it just because I am horribly, terribly addicted and can not function when I am not online! How would I check my bank account balance?!

    10. Dresses. Seriously, I don't know if I am just weird or if it is the heat...but I live in dresses. They're pretty much all I ever wear!

     

    What are 10 things that you can't live without?

      Maybe it's because I'm an aquarius, but I have always wanted to live near water. I am jealous! And like you, my iPhone is basically attached to my hand at all times. Even when I'm on my computer...

      I love the ocean too!

      Some of mine are the same, except dresses. I only own one and I can't bring myself to actually wear it out in public lol.

      August 19, 2012 at 11:15 am

      I have to think about this one and do a post 🙂

    5. Rachel

      I am all about the dresses also.

      I call them my mom uniform because I am always in a dress or as skirt.

    6. Tammy

      August 19, 2012 at 1:50 pm

      I can't live without my family, too.

    7. Kelly

      August 19, 2012 at 3:05 pm

      I am a straight internet junkie. I wish I was intro dresses too.

    8. Notorious Spinks

      August 19, 2012 at 4:06 pm

      Great list. I might need to add my MAC Lipglass to my list because it's the bomb!

    9. Billie

      I'm a full on tv addict and with Netflix and my Kindle Fire (it's propped up right next to the computer, so I can watch tv AND work) I burn through seasons of tv shows like nobody's business. I'm also addicted to the internet.

    10. Barb

      August 19, 2012 at 5:30 pm

      Jenn, I can't live without my iPhone 4S, iPad, or iPod!! I totally agree about iced coffee---if it's not at home, then hello Starbucks! I've hit gold card status with them! Definitely my family's on the list, along with my friends!!

    11. debra

      August 19, 2012 at 6:01 pm

      I love your list and relate to most of it! I can't live without peace of mind ;).

    12. nicole

      August 19, 2012 at 6:29 pm

      Great list! Many of mine are on yours! 😉

    13. Stefani

      August 19, 2012 at 6:30 pm

      I just love all the things on your list. I couldn't live without my family, iphone, internet, cable, flip flops, chocolate, pizza and my cat!

    14. Courtney

      August 19, 2012 at 6:42 pm

      Your pup looks so fluffy and soft! So cute!

    15. Amy

      August 19, 2012 at 7:14 pm

      Awesome list! For me - family, dogs, computer, internet, tv, smartphone, flip flops, Diet Dr Pepper... sad!!

    16. Katie

      August 19, 2012 at 10:01 pm

      I hear ya on the iPhone!

    17. Steph

      August 19, 2012 at 10:06 pm

      I love many of the things you can't live without, except dresses. I want to love them, but I just cannot.

    18. Kathy

      August 19, 2012 at 10:24 pm

      My family and my laptop!

    19. Anne

      August 19, 2012 at 10:44 pm

      Sounds good, I love iced coffee too, it is much better than hot coffee!

    20. MomStart (Ashley)

      August 19, 2012 at 11:21 pm

      Yes... you do have some GREAT dresses. =)

    21. Rachel

      August 20, 2012 at 12:20 am

      Lol -- I *nearly* got an iPhone this weekend but my husband pushed for the new Samsung Galaxy 3s .... I still haven't decided if I am happy about the new phone or not.

    22. Stefanie

      August 20, 2012 at 12:21 am

      Family, phone, camera, laptop ... internet!!

    23. Emily

      August 20, 2012 at 12:33 am

      I may have to work on my list!! Your dog is adorable, and the way you wear dresses you should wear them all the time!

    24. Theresa

      August 20, 2012 at 12:46 am

      Your dog is so cute! I couldn't live without my family either. Beautiful photos Jenn!

    25. Ty

      August 20, 2012 at 1:01 am

      What a wonderful list! Your dog is super cute!

    26. RJ

      August 20, 2012 at 1:10 am

      Love your list! I'm not much of a dress girl, but you pull them off so well! I couldn't live without my books or headphones. They keep me sane! I know what you mean about not being a dog person. Until I got Padfoot I NEVER thought of myself as a dog person. Turns out I was wrong. 😉

    27. Lolo

      August 20, 2012 at 2:23 am

      Great list!! The beach is on my top 10 too, and my family is #1!

    28. Nightowlmama

      August 20, 2012 at 2:32 am

      did I miss u at BLogher? love the pic way too cute lists are fun aren't they

    29. Shell Fruscione

      August 20, 2012 at 3:37 am

      Your list could seriously be my own- they're very very close! I'm bummed though because I don't have a beach, but we do have lots of pools so it helps. But the beach is my all-time happy place! Your dog is BEAUTIFUL by the way!

    30. Jenn

      August 20, 2012 at 5:57 am

      We must have, I don't remember meeting you! 🙁

    31. Jennifer

      August 20, 2012 at 9:30 am

      definitely do not separate me and my iphone either.

    32. Crystal

      August 20, 2012 at 10:55 am

      I couldn't live without my iPhone, family or internet either. These are must haves.

    33. Marcie W.

      August 20, 2012 at 4:39 pm

      I love your list and we certainly have a few items in common!

    34. Donna

      August 20, 2012 at 9:28 pm

      We have a lot in common. The biggest difference would be that I prefer hot coffee over iced. 🙂 And I love the ocean/beach, but don't live near one. 🙁

    35. Katja of Skimbaco

      August 21, 2012 at 5:59 am

      Awesome list and loved getting to know you a little bit better! I love the ocean too, and haven't lived on the coast since 1997 and it's killing me!!

    36. Liz

      August 21, 2012 at 12:38 pm

      I watch zero tv during the day, but I watch all the reality tv crap I can see at night! Love my iPhone too!

    37. Jenn

      August 21, 2012 at 12:39 pm

      The funny thing is that I never watch TV during the day either! Not even on weekends! It doesn't come on until around 7 or so, but then it's one until midnight!
