I have a few things that I always have with me when I leave my house. Do you have any items that you always take with you when leaving your house?? I always have to have my chap stick, my cigarette's (yeah I am a smoker) and I have gotten to where I love to take my digital camera any time I leave the house. You never know, I may see something worth taking a picture of and I want to be prepared. So, what do you have to take with you every time you leave the house?

Yes, I have to have my chap stick b/c of my lips getting chapped and burning. Thanks for the response, have a great day.

can't leave home without it - cant leave home without my cell
Hi nelly, I always need to take my cell phone, wallet and brush with me! My hair gets messy real easy if I leave it open. Other things I like to stick in my jeans include my lipstick or lip gloss and house keys (just incase my dad isn't home by the time I get back) I always say to myself I'll take my camera with me but even though I have a pouch I can strap around me like a purse I still leave it home most of the times!

I love my lipstick too, that is something I like to have with me, but I don't mind too much if I forget it. I really have to have my chap stick though, my lips get chapped easily. Thanks for the response, oh and I hope you start to remember to take your camera...maybe you will get that perfect pic you could share with us. I love taking pictures. Have a great day!

My smokes and a lighter is most important. Then it would be my drivers license, headach medicine, pen, my phone, medical insurance card, money, feminine products.

Sunglasses is something I need to add to my list. My eyes are sensitive to the sunlight and seem to always be without them when I need them most. I think I should buy a pair to leave in my glove compartment for those times when I really need them and forget mine in the house. Thanks for the response, have a wonderful day!

My days of having young kids is over, but oh how I do remember those days of feeling like I was carrying everything we owned..lol I have two boys who both have asthma, so I use to have to carry their aerosal machine, all the meds for the machine, their inhalers, their liquid meds, full diaper bag, my personal belongings, and all 3 kids..lol That was a lot then, I am so glad that now all I have to take is my important items that I don't want to leave the house without. The kids are old enough and able to carry their own belongings..lol Thanks for the post, have a great day!

Having a child yes you have to. I have to have money, nappies, wipes and some form of entertainment, toy or teddy bear. I also probably take a drink for my daughter and a dummy.

I always take my chapstick with me where ever I go. I also try to take my wallet with me where ever I go. I'm one of those girls who hate purses. So I have a wallet. And since I've gotten a phone I have that with me constantly.

I tend to stuff my cell phone in my pocket. We all use our cell phones more than landline phones so I just stuff it in my pocket whether I"m just running outside for a second or leaving the house. That is the only things that I make sure i have when I go outside.

I totally understand you. If I forget one of the items that I always take with me, I will also turn around and go back to get them,...well if I am not too far from home, if I get too far from home, I have to go without, with the gas prices these days, I can't really afford to do much back tracking. Thanks for the response, have a great day!

It depend to where i am going. If i will just go to work or maybe go to the mall, i make sure that i have my cellphone and wallet with me. But if i go to church, i always make sure to leave my cellphone in the house.

I have to take my cell phone wherever I go because I get a lot of calls and I'm a smoker, too, so the cigs and a lighter get tucked into a pocket or purse. I wish I could remember to take my camera with me when I go out because I live in a beautiful area and there have been so many missed opportunities for nice pictures.

I have a cell phone, but I no longer use it, b/c I live in an area where we do not have any good service, therefore, sometimes I will take it with me if I am driving far or driving at night, that way I will be able to call 911 in case of an emergency. Yes, the cigs and lighter get put in my pocket or purse first thing, I am lost without those. As for taking pictures, I have gotten so many good pics, that I would not have had the opportunity to take if I wasn't there at that moment with my camera, I love to take pictures. Thanks for the response, have a great day!

Only two things need to go with me where ever I go. My cellphone and my wallet. That's it. I used to smoke, 2 months smoke free, "yippee me" and always had them where ever I went.
@nelly5 (1424)

WOW!! Good for you!! That is awesome! Don't think that you can pick up and just have one or two when ever you want, b/c it will only make you start back up to smoking just like you were before. I went 7 months without smoking and thought I would only have one or two and I have been smoking like crazy since then. Thanks for the response, have a great day!

I never leave the house without a chapstick. I have to have it. I always take my cellphone too. Just in case something happens and I need to call someone because sometimes you just never know when you'll have to use your phone to make a call.

Interesting, so because I don't know much about a rosary, this may sound dumb...but why do you carry a rosary?? I mean do you take it everywhere with you so that when you feel the need to pray, you have it with you?? Thanks for the response, have a great day!
@adoremay (2065)

No, I don't use the rosary most of the times. But I do pray not using the rosary,hehehe. I just carry it for protection. I think I am protected when I carry it.
