But yesterday got me thinking...as writers we need some sort of emergency care kit for times when life seems dismal. When you want nothing more than to curl up

#1 Chocolate is a must! Chocolate makes everything go away!
I don't know what exactly it is they put in this stuff, but it works.
So I suggest keeping a modest stash like the one pictured.
#2 Pretty gel pens...I have to have something
pretty to write with.
Okay so that's so totally girl of me,
but what an I say? You use whatever works.



#4 Run don't walk to your nearest Starbucks for a much needed caffeine fix! As an added bonus they have free WiFi! Which leads me to the final ingredient in my kit...

#5 An Ipod touch! I bought my son one of these little gems for his B-day and had no idea what could be accomplished on them! I so want one of these!
So there you have it, my emergency kit to makes it through whatever life may throw my way! Did I miss anything? What would you put in your emergency kit?

We just got on ipod touch and I have no idea what to do with it!
Ditto to #1 and of course, Starbucks!! Enjoy your weekend.
Fridays area always better!
I like your emergency kit :) We don't have Starbucks here, but substitute in Timmy's (Tim Horton's) and Chai tea and I'm set :)
Honestly I don't care about most of those things, but I do love caffeine and music, so yay for those! I don't get the chocolate thing either. Maybe because I'm a man? Or probably because I have sensitive teeth and can't really eat sweets.

I'm glad you're having a better day today! My sister lives in Kansas, so I've heard all about the freakishly high temperatures and humidity -- followed at random intervals by hail storms.
Emergency kit for me: a cold martini in a hot tub under the starry sky with my husband. Yeah, that helps!
I'm all about sparkling fun pens and journals...see if I'm having a bad day- I just go buy me one or the other or both- and boom I'm in the mood to write...doesn't matter what I write but because its new and shiney I have to write in it. :)
paint and brushes would be necessary for me..
and my hubby, because his hugs take away all the baddness!!! :)
All EXTREMELY cool and important tips! LOVED it, Renae!
I'm a sucker for pens :d Whenever I travel, I always gotta pick one up from whatever destination I'm visiting. Great post!
I agree with just about everything on the list, except for the coffee-I like it, but don't need it. You reminded me that I need to buy some pretty new pens! :)
Love your kit! I got the touch for my husband for Christmas. Definitely makes me want one.
I can't think of much else to add. Your kit sounds perfect. :)
A nice cup of hot tea, closing my eyes, and listening to the haunting melodies of gypsy Spanish guitars will always inspire me.
It's what I was doing before reading your blog. Thanks for reading my latest post and commenting. It meant a lot.
A really haunting video of the gypsy melody I'm listening to can be found here :

Have a great Labor Day weekend, Roland
Frequently scheduled naps.
Sorry about your rotten day. I love chocolate too!!! And music - Hook it up to a bose system and turn it up LOUD. Stuff and chocolate in your mouth and DANCE!!! Makes everything better. Hugs!!
Uh why didn't you share this with me earlier? I never thought of needing an emergency kit!!! This is amazing!!!
Thanks for the brilliant idea! I would add gummy bears, I'm always in need of a pick me up!
Here, here to chocolate!
I'd go for chocolate covered gummy bears, my personal favorite. But they're expensive.
A nap also helps. Doesn't help the hair, but when it's a bad hair day, NOTHING helps the hair. :)
Take care, Renae. Glad the days are getting better. I hope you had a fabulous weekend. :)

I would include everything on your list but instead of chocolate, I would have donuts or caramels. Mmmm.
