Practical things:
1. Nivea Nighttime Renewal lotion. Awesome for intensely dry skin. I ran out and need to order more.
2. AAA and AA batteries. You can never have enough with kids around.
3. A daily inspirational story, concept, motivator to keep my aspirations going.

Those are great ideas.. I should probably go out and buy an inspirational book to get me through the hard times. I don't know if you ever heard of Randy Pausch. He is a professor at Carnegie Mellon that is dying of pancreatic cancer.
This is his speech on youtube.

He gave a lecture called "the last lecture" about what you would say if it was your last lecture and you were dying. It's a hypothetical thing but in his case it's true. I want to go out and buy his book..

In Sept. they gave him 2-3 months or so and he's been going on this long. The last thing I read was the cancer has spread as of May of this year to his lungs, lymph nodes and other areas which is very sad. But he is very inspirational so I still want to buy and read his book
