Sorry I haven't been on since my last post. I have been meaning to, but this past week has been crazy busy :) I wanted to say thank you to all of you who emailed me and let me know you were worried about me. Now that the holidays are over, and life has gone back to its busy busy self, I am ok again.
My room is somewhat of a mess, and I had been thinking about cleaning it out, but after thinking some more about it, I figured that I would clean out my purse instead. (you know, the whole new year, fresh start thinking). I sat down on the floor and pulled out a couple of peices of papers, and realized at that rate, I would never get it done, so I just dumped the purse upside down, got everything out of it, and put it in piles to go through. Can I say I had a TON of crap in there. And my purse isn't that big. Did you ever watch the old "Lets make a deal" and at the end the host would say he would give $100 to the person that had such and such in their purse? I could probably make money on that show most days, LOL.

dang girl!!!! i think you need to empty that bad boy a little bit more often, lol!!! thats classic, thanks for sharing!
That's exactly why I dont even use a purse anymore! Going around with at least 2 diaper bags everywhere, I just put my things in a zip lock bag in there.... But your purse looks so much as mine use to look!!
LOL
You really had a PM Dawn cd in there? Now I know why you are my friend! I love them, "reality used to be a friend of mine", too! I'm glad I don't carry a purse but I can believe you have that much stuff, my mom used to carry around a purse that would fit the kitchen sink when I was little and she only had 2 kids!
HOLY COW!!!!! I cleaned out my purse this weekend, but you hold the record! :)
Okay, when I was a working girl I seemed to have two phases of purses that needed to be changed every few months. (Often an excuse to buy a new purse but I often rotated too). Oh, the luxuries of a working girl with disposable income.
I'd get a small purse because I was so fed up with the big purse I'd been lugging around that was starting to breaking my shoulder. Then I'd carry the small one around until I decided that it just didn't hold enough of what I needed. I'd tell myself I needed a bigger purse again but this time I'd be much more organized about it.
It was a vicious cycle. But it didn't change for 5 years while I was in corporate America. Big purse, small purse, big purse, small...
I have to give you a big internet hug because you brought back to my mind one of my favorite CD's back from when I was so young and in love (not with the hubby tho) but young love is so nostalgic - right? I just love PM Dawn and probably haven't listen to them for 10 years!
I was playing the song listening and my husband walked up behind me and gave me a little hug and some sweet words. I think he must have thought I was thinking about him. Maybe I was, but more I was thinking about that young love feeling. hee hee. I wasn't going to tell him that tho. LOLOLOLOL
Holy cow!! That is a bunch of stuff you have been carring around!! LOL!!
OK - I'm sending a link to this post to my kids so they will now officially know that there is someone else on the planet with as much (more!? ;o) ) stuff in their purse as me.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME FEEL MORE NORMAL! LOL!
xoxo
