OK, I’ve been tagged. I don’t always play along but this time I will. The challenge is to show you what’s in my purse right now. I decided to join in because it’s been pointed out to me that I haven’t had any “personal” posts of late. I figure a gal’s purse is pretty personal so here you go. MY PURSE

First we have to figure out which purse I’m using right now.  I’ve got a few I rotate through, no I don’t rotate according to season or outfit. 
The change comes when whichever purse I am using at the time comes too close to
representing the rest of  my life: cluttered, unorganized, messy, and maybe
a little sticky.  When ever I get to the point when I can’t find my lip
gloss or keys then I clean out and move over to another purse.

Today,
you’ll find my belongings in this purse.  Cute huh?  Kurt bought it
for me last year for my Birthday.  It’s pretty big, most of my purses
are…at least the ones I use anyway…

Let’s take a little peek inside:  You know you want too…Here we go from
left to right.  On the upper left you’ll see the little zipper pocket,
we’ll get to it’s contents later.  The purse has two large open pocket
areas with a center zipped area.  Towards the front of the purse is an open
cell phone pocket and next to it is another open pocket.  On the outside
front are two small pockets with snap closures. 

Let’s get started, first we’ll pull out the contents from the larger open
area.  You’ll find my little pocket Bible I got from Kurt and the kids for
Mother’s Day 2000, along side is the ever important always loved, Nikon CoolPix. 
Oh how I love my camera, did I mention it has an 8.3 optical zoom.  How
Lovely…

Now for the wallet.  This is an old one that came with an old purse, I had
a cute little pink one that had a strap.  I really liked it cause I could
slip it on my wrist and leave the rest of the purse in my van.  Alas the
strap popped off and I found this one in the bottom of  my closet. 
While going through my wallet I found a pile of receipts, an expired PayPal
card, Library cards, appointment cards, a bunch of those store cards where if
you get enough "punches" you get a free latte/sandwich/burrito/ or 10% off
something or other.  I also found…oops three drivers licenses.  Yes
I know it’s illegal to carry more than one…I don’t know how they all got
there.  I’ll destroy the old ones after I’m done with this post.  But
hey, while we’re at it why don’t we compare pics.

The first headshot was taken when I was 19  Kurt and I had moved to
Dalhart after being married for 9months.  It took me a while till I got
around to getting a Texas License.  The second one was taken a week before I
turned 23, Amy Glazner kept Kaleb and Charleigh while I went to renew my
license.  When I got back we laughed about how the next time I’d have to
renew I’d be 30!  And finally the last one there I am…30, or a week before 30.  During
this picture I had Joshua hanging on my leg.  While I renewed the lady
behind the desk checked my eyes and asked general questions.  She read
various info about me as it came up on her screen.  At one point she
smirked at the monitor, turned her head and with a laugh said "You don’t
actually weigh 115 any more do you? We’ll have to update that"  Nice.

Another
thing you’ll find in my wallet is this dollar that belongs to Charleigh, I
haven’t given it to her yet because it is marked with
www.wheresgeorge.com and I haven’t
gotten around to going and entering it’s info.

Back
to the Purse.  Here’s a peek inside the middle pocket.

Let’s take a closer Look:
 

Here we find contacts, contact soloution, a Tide to go pen, Ile De Tahiti
Coconut Vanille spray, Excedrine, dental floss, powder, tweezers, clippers, a hair pick, and
a secret box with "secret" things .  You can also see a tube of my Pecan
Passion Totally Tempting Lip Plumper Gloss. Love this stuff, you’ll notice a bit
of damage to the lid, that’s due to it’s being ran over by my mini van. 
Still works, no need to toss it.  Oh yes there’s also a little bottle of Charleigh’s
nail polish, I have no idea how it go there, no idea why my toenails happen to
be the same color… I’ll admit to nothing.

On the inside small zipper pocket I’ve got two pens, another tube of the
lipgloss(It’s the exact same kind. I told you I like the stuff), two ponytail holders, two saftey pens, two pretty bookmarks, (in case
I find someone to give them too) and a pretty pewter stone with a dove engraved
in it.  That too is in there in case I find someone to give it to.  I
used to have lots of them but have already given the rest away.

On
the opposite side are two small pockets one carries my Sprint phone and the
other holds this note pad which I got from Kathy for my birthday, a pen from
Dalhart Abstract I got when we bought our house a few years ago, or maybe it’s
the one from when we sold it…anyway there’s also a green crayon, cause who
doesn’t need a green crayon.

Two
pockets left, in the first you’ll find a stretchy frog and lizard as well as a
blue matchbox car and a polly pocket.

The next pocket holds a fresh new pack of gum, this is thanks to Kurt, he
bought a box of 15 packs.  If it wasn’t for his supply I’d never have gum.

So there you go, my purse…do you feel closer to me now?  NO, where’s
here’s a picture of some of the trash I cleaned out.
