For Fun - What is in your purse???

My purse is currently holding :

Car Keys
Billfold (credit cards, checkbook, etc.)
Old checkbook register
Ibuprofen
Snack size ziploc baggie with spare change
Dental floss
Cell phone
Car insurance card (floating in my purse - I need to put it IN my car!)
2 blinkies (Catalina coupons)
Old grocery lists (2 of them)
Black ink click pen

I love it when people make a post like this because it gives me incentive to clean out my purse. I am carrying a smaller (to me) Kate Spade purse right now. It doesn't hold half of the stuff I normally haul around on a daily basis.

I have Purse Brite which I got at BB&B and I love it! I have pens, wallet, two sets of keys, work ID, notepad, purel, comb, makeup, checkbook, pocketknife, sunglasses, coin purse, whistle, cell phone, emory board, measuring tape, lipsticks, the Owl for these old eyes, I think I pretty much listed everything! If I could find a purse big enough I would not have to keep taking a big tote bag with me every day but I don't think they make purses the size of Montana do they? LOL

Ok I don't carry a purse....Everytime I start I just end up putting a bunch of junk in there that I don't need. It becomes a traveling trash can for me. So after leaving my purse on the roof 2 years ago having all my reciepts blow all over the road I decided from that day on No purse for me. I have no credit cards and I only use cash so it fits nicely into my pocket except when I get tons of change I get home and my pants look ridiculous. So I guess it would come in handy but just for change.

So Nothing in my purse...

Not sure what's in my purse, but I know what's in the pockets of my jacket! One of my students was freezing yesterday while at recess (and I was on duty), so I told her to go inside and get my blue jean jacket from behind my desk. She came back wearing it and smiling. "Guess what's in your pockets, Ms. Robinson," she yelled...while pulling a noonie out of each pocket! I had kept my grandson over the weekend and was very well prepared. LOl!

Don't think my fingers could handle all the typing from listing everything in there right now..LOL
My family jokes that I carry a suitcase around! Dh never wants to get into my purse for something, he just brings it to me if he needs anything out of it. He jokes that something in there might bite him*rolls eyes*..lol
I told him I keep it that way so no one will go in there
My 15 yr old has made it her mission to help me "organize" my purse by buying me a new purse and wallet for Christmas. Everytime we go out she asks which purse and wallet I like so she can chose the best one
