Privacy for at least a little bit of each day. I have to get it at home with my family so I am sure I would need that the most with a bunch of strangers.

I make quilts. I do everything by hand. I would take my fabric, scissors, needles and thread.


This is an incredibly theraputic activity and it takes months to complete. I have quilted my way through some of the most stressful events in my life.

There is something very stimulating and soothing at the same time. You can be working on your project and be able to talk, pay attention, and somehow it keeps you very calm and focussed.

I would miss my children, cat & hubby most, but would have to have a p.c. with word-processor and games--or at least some hand-held games--for entertainment; needlework; novels or other reading material; pens and stationery/cards; cookbook; my household accounts ledger & receipts; the entire contents of my "junk drawer" in the kitchen! (See, I'd be disqualified!) Also, nail clippers, camera & my own feather pillows.

Internet access. The longest evenings are when electric current is out, cable modem is down or computer is broken. Yet 10 years ago a computer wouldn't have hit my top ten 'needed' items -- funny how times change. In college in the 80s, I *hated* using the computers in the lab for my papers -- as many teachers as would allow it, I typed on my old trusty typewriter. "The times, they are a changing"

Car -- do you even do the piecing by hand or did you just mean the 'quilting' part?

My daily dose of M&Ms. I alternate plain one day, peanut the next, almond the day after that, etc.

And not knowing what's going on in the world in general.

My cats. Can't hardly even go on vacation without feeling guilty.

OK that's 3 things, but I just couldn't do without any of them.

Only ONE thing? Okay then -
EVERYTHING! That is 'one' word, isn't it?

Let's see...Diet Coke, my own pillow, the internet, my cross stitch stuff, and being able to talk with my husband and my mom. I might get over being without the internet if I could figure a way to talk to everyone here and give you inside info without getting caught.

Freedom!!! As a one-time guest of our County Correctional Facility, the 3 days spent there were the longest 3 days of my life. Things you take for granted: being able to choose what to eat; to be able to come & go; to take a dump in private.

Hey-I guess that being on BB is kinda like going to jail...except that the fellow HG's in jail are a little more predictable than those on BB3.

I am a control feak so, I would miss the control I have over my own household.
My sister said I would be the first kicked out if I were in BB4. She also said "I love you, you are my sister, but you are a bi***"
I don't think I would be in there long enough to miss anything except my mind.
How is that for brutally honest.

Oh my! For one thing a bit of privacy!! Then my favorite books and cds.
But the one thing I really miss is my newspaper, computer and my tv. I'm a news junkie and I feel lost without knowing what's going on.
I tried during my vacation to blank all that out but I couldn't.
I think everyone would say, my kids and my family! Oh wow!! I would be the only hg who never cries because of that. If I'm in the BB house I should be prepared to withstand their absence. I won't cry!! What's a couple of months on my own?? A nice vacation for me. I took trips by myself to get away from it all, so I should be okay. I wonder though if the absence of all that I mentioned would make me homesick, including my family.
