This cute t-shirt really resonated with me. Most days all I really do need is coffee and eyeliner! Someone once told me that needs are so few but wants are so expensive. I strive to both need and want less. I think this is a self-defense mechanism that has helped me prepare for life's' inevitable ups and downs.
My closet, jewelry case and shoe shelves are pretty pared down and nowhere near the jam packed ones that my friends have. But I do have the latest smartphone.
My laptop is getting really old but it still gets email and my blog and Facebook and eBay and there's not a lot more I need these days. But I have tickets to a scrumptious Passover seder and a funny play next month.
I use the library and my free magazine subscriptions for almost all my reading materials but I have a premium cable package and Cinemax (for Banshee) and HBO (it was included).
I shop at Aldi's for most of our food but never really skimp if I want something good (like lox).
I'm happy to stay home and watch TV, but we also have a New Year's Eve cruise and an 11 day cruise a month later planned with our cousins.
Time to make my coffee and put on my eyeliner. Right now, they are truly all I really need!
