Here we are at day 25 on this Thirty Days of Me journal journey. Today I am supposed to write all the things you might find in my bag. Lordy me...this is somewhat revealing and sacred. Even my husband knows that it's a bad idea to dig around in a lady's purse. Oh well, I'm 24 days toward thirty and not stopping now.
For the past year, I have been lugging around an enormous leather bag that shows very little sign of wear which means I will likely be lugging it around for another year or so. I can literally fit two pairs of shoes, my shih tzu, the Encyclopedia of Country Living and a box of donuts in there along with all the regular things that are always in my handbag.
In my bag, there will always be lipstick in 2 or 3 shades, Rodan lip balm, germX, sunglasses, reading glasses, two sets of car keys (unless one's in the car ignition), perfume, earbuds, little travel size lotion, gum, emergency medicines, band=aids because I take blood thinner, my iPhone, ten or so random receipts and pieces of paper, numerous ink pens and my wallet.
Now, in my wallet will be my ID, more band=aids, no money, the key to the mailbox and ten or so more random receipts that I need to relocate to the trash bin.
On occasion, I downsize to a lightweight crossbody bag for a concert, to go to Oaklawn Park (see Hot Springs) or other special excursion/occasion. Then I just strictly carry one lipstick, Rodan lip balm, germX, sunglasses, gum, emergency medicines, band=aids (yeah, because I take blood thinner), my iPhone and my ID. Never any money....never have any money.
