Talk To Me Tuesday: Your Purse

Why wouldn't I blog about what's in my purse? I only have a laundry room full of clothes and sheets waiting, ever so patiently, to be washed, dirty dishes in the sink, and floors that need mopped... Ha! But, this certainly seems a much more productive use of nap time, if I do say so myself. So, I have skipped a few weeks of "TTMT", {ib}h (that's, inspired by Heidi *wink*), and am hopping back on board.

First, let me introduce you to the purse, which was a Christmas gift, but is from Kohl's:

When it comes to handbags, I have Visa taste on a Dave Ramsey budget (or for the non-FPU'ers out there, champagne taste on a Bud Light budget) which makes finding a purse difficult. I have been looking at purses for probably the last year without finding one that really felt like "the one". This is the one. For now.

Here are it's innards (warning: if you have a sensitive stomach you may not want to continue. Okay, I kid. But, it's a mess):

• Bible - perfect purse size, not my "study" Bible, but I love to have it with me
• Notebook - for the to-do list and other random scribbles
• Extra camera battery (likely needs to be charged)
• MOPS goods (newsletter, meeting handout, information cards, punch card)
• Headband
• Reusable snack bag with some stale veggie straws
• Sunglasses (everyone needs two identical pair in their purse, right?)
• Comb
• Trusty envelope system
• Kleenex, etc
• Old receipts and a couple of grocery lists
• "Airport" bag: hand sanitizer (once again, two), lip gloss (three various)
• Chip clip (?)
• Two packages of gum... both empty
• One lone bobby pin
• Lots of loose pennies
• Pens and a pencil

I am thankful for this topic, it forced me to clean and reorganize my purse (that is way overpacked considering it often gets left behind in lieu of the diaper bag, the contents of which I do not dare photograph or blog about, ha)!
