What is the one material item you couldn't live without?

You are so right. We tend to over look the things most important to us til the day comes when we don't have them. Sounds like you stopped to take a moment to reflect.

sure there is if you stop and think about it. Candle light dinners. Have you ever been without power for more than a day? You learn to adjust to the climate. It is quite fun actually. Cold showers,sandwiches and acting like you are camping. Oh did you think about Gas powered things? That keeps many of us going too. Thanks for the response.

I guess that wouldn't be very romatic. Sorry it was off so long. I hope things are better for you now. What would you tell people to do if they have this same problem? I'm sure you have plenty of advice.

Yes I've lived without electricity for 3 months and no water and there was nothing romantic about it..lol It was in the summertime and I lived in a very small mobile home and it was because of lack of money so there weren't any options for alternative ways to power things..I hope I never have to live those days over again.

you really thought that one out as well. I'm glad to see it made people think. I like the way you said the basis of all material items. You read deep into the discussions don't you? That makes for great responses as well. Thanks for the reponse. I will look for more discussions by you.

That isn't so far. Get on that horse and ride. A taxi would cost as much as a car would.

I'll give you that one since the first was already taken. Never thought about that one. Good one. I couldn't make it on the floor with my back.

Aww dangit all! Can I have more than one? LOL. I would definately have to have a bed, there is no way I am sleeping on the floor...nuh uh!

that would be the same as above. What did we do years ago?

thought that would be most responses
