I cant leave the house without my handbag. My boyfriend cant leave without his backpack. If he doesnt have his backpack with his mp3 player he wont leave. I feel naked without my bag. I have seen him stay home because he couldnt find his backpack. What about you and yours? What's the one thing you wont leave home without. dl

It would have to be our cellphones. My husband has three, one for the office, one is his old line, and one that is exclusive for me and his daughter. LOL! I have 2 lines, one has been my number for 10 years now and the other one is exclusively for my husband and daughter. Without these phones, we both feel naked, something missing. Like forgetting to wear our underwear or putting on deodorant. LOL!

Other than my car keys, I am not that attached to anything. I have to periodically trim down my work bag, but that is just because it is too full of work related papers. I would also say I always need some way to tell time, either my watch or my phone. A pen is the final necessity for me to function. I take one to work, to the store and to church. Maybe I would say that my glasses are the one thing I must have, as I genuinely cannot see. I am also guilty of always having a snack on hand.

I cannot leave the house without brushing my hair or showering. My husband cannot ever leave the house unless he has his hat. I also need my sunglasses too and my checkbook.

I think If I lost my bag I would literally be unable to function. My husband is funny because he has his MAN BAG as I call it. It went from a pocket full of stuff to a back pack, a small one. My grandmother was so funny she knitted him a pocketbook. He would kill me if he knew I called it that. It was a 7x7 bag made with the colors of the puerto rican flag. (He's puertorican thank god)lol....

I cannot find myself going out without my cards which are more important to me. I have been to dinners with just the cards and no handbag so I prefer it this way. If I have my cards I can survive throughout the day so no other problem with the cards. My boyfriend will have to take his mobile or his purse with him. He cannot forget it as he does not like to wear a watch so he prefer his mobile to be with him.

I cant believe it! I thought I was the only one with a husband with a man purse. My man wont go anywhere without it. He totally cares which one he uses with what outfit. Yes, He actually has more than one. One of them my grandmother made for him. She knitted it. He really really loves it. Go figure. lol dl

The two of us can't leave home without our white cnes. LOL We're both legally blind, and need our canes so people will know not to run directly infront of us. LOL Also, they are handy for feeling our way along, incase something odd comes up that we don't notice. We can both see a bit, but not much.

I have to have my wallet, car keys and a handkerchief and my tablets. I won't get far without my keys...there's nothing where I live so I need to drive...need to carry my license and need my hanky and painkillers and antacids. I don't feel naked without my handbag cos if I just walk to the post office I stick my hands in my pockets cos I don't have to carry anything.

I would have to say my door keys. I don't always take my handbag with me if I am just popping out somewhere for a short time, but I do need my door keys or I wouldn't be able to be get back in again lol

Glasses and keys are what Hubby need to leave home. He also always wears a baseball cap to cover his bald head.
