Colett did a "tag" blog entry a while back about what was in her purse. I took a picture of the contents of mine and realized just how much I carry around with me most days and how hard it would be to not have the stuff I use all the time right next to me. I feel a little like a scout in the "be prepared" department such as what if my hands get dirty, what if I need to measure something at Home Depot, what if I get something caught in my teeth or snag my nail? If I lost my purse, it would be a HUGE catastrophe. OK, here are the things in my purse. The fashionable big purses make it easier to keep adding things like books, Wayne's sunglasses or wallet, games and food or water bottles. No wonder my shoulder hurts sometimes. You may have to click to enlarge the picture see what everything is.

These are the items:

cute matchstick type emery boards, wet wipes, a bottle of hand sanitizer, lotion, sunglasses, a garden nursery coupon, store coupons, kleenex, my wallet which is heavy...Utah has a 7% sales tax and I get so many pennies as change, store receipts, a pen, reading glasses (yes I am in that age category), a comb, a tag??? from something, tweezers in case I have a hair grow out of my chin, a measuring tape, band-aids, lip balm, 2 lipsticks, dental floss...by the way the Crest Glide is the best floss I have ever used and is really different from all the rest....gum, candy, mints, a sack of Ibuprofin, my cute notebook to write ideas I see when I go places, and a picture of my hair to take to my stylist so she can remember what she did last time. I usually have garbage in there too but my purse just happened to be fairly clean this time. Now as I look at my purse, I am thinking a shopping trip is in order. This one won't do for Fall. I need a darker purse or maybe "RED", my favorite color. Maybe I will blog it and show you what I get. OK, what's in your wallet?? (purse)
