My cellphone. I have internet capability on it so I can check on this board and other places during my state required duty-free lunch at school. We are not allowed to use our classroom computers for such frivolity. In fact, most sites are blocked to us, anyway. I have a whole whopping 30 minutes to eat lunch, visit the ladies room and relax. And, after a morning of 22 kdg kids tugging at my clothes and coughing in my face from 7:30-11:50...I think I deserve a few minutes of relaxation! Mind you...I am not complaining about my job...I just wonder about the admin/powers that be that are so worried that we will surf the 'net during class time. I don't have a spare moment!!!!!!

Not in the global sense, but personally, I cherish my freedom -- freedom to sleep when I want to, eat when I want to, go out, stay home, clean, or not!, sew, read, nap, play with the barn cats, wash the dishes when I'm ready, empty the dryer when I feel like it, to never "have" to make the bed, to just sit and watch the sunset even though dinner is waiting, to plan any project I feel like and carry it to completion without disrupting someone else's schedule.

I cherish my single status and the freedom it gives me to be complete in and of myself, and rarely lonely. :)

I'm raising my hand to nearly everything you all listed. God, family, vehicles, love, iPod, home and I have to add quiet time for me.

Everything listed...and my camera. If I can't get to sewing I grab my camera and go outside. There are so many things that we pass by each day and not even notice. I get some of the most amazing pictures just right outside my door. =)

I will just bet you are a fantastic photographer and have some outstanding pictures. Would love to see some of them. People who love to take pictures see many things the average person doesn't. :thumbup:
