Goodness Lola...how in the world do you do that?

My purse isn't exciting either. I did find a way to find my keys easily. A neon-orange fishing float...not very stylish but I can spot that sucker almost in the dark. It works! Found it in the sports department in Wal-Mart. It works so well my in-laws have started buying them.

Newleaf, I'm not going to ask how big your suitcase...ah, purse is. I'd be afraid I'd pull ot my thong panties instead of the mace. Come to think of it, that might work...for me anyways.

Well, you girls are too much . I am not telling what I carry in my handbag for I am not sure only what all I do carry . I know a wallet and car keys I know for sure . The rest is history . My daughter told ne as we were shopping for hand bags one day , "Mom You use to carry a large hand bag and now it is getting smaller and smaller " I carry less and less these days . Dayos the the old check book are gone with the use of check cards (for which I love ). Even my dress bags are small . How 's that !

Blessings,

Renee, I am glad the check book is gone. I hated trying to remember what I wrote them for and how much I had spent. Now I can look online and know immediately.

Do you remember the wooden purses with the fancy designs on them? Do you have any of those?

Good job, Renee.

I noticed today that it seems my arms are constantly loaded down with "stuff". I carry a thermos of coffee to work, a leather jacket in case they try to turn us into peoplepops, my "suitcase" loaded to the hilt, my Jethro Bodine lunch, books, crosswords and notebooks so I won't get bored, and at least one more drink (one never knows when they will be thirsty).

I do this every night, 5 nights a week...my knuckles are starting to drag the ground and I've developed this awful aching between my shoulder blades. They won't let us carry a backpack so I'm walking into work juggling all this "stuff" and dropping it everywhere.

How do you do it, Renee?
