my blog title is Mary poppin-ish my purse is too

last night we went to a family shindig at my sister in laws house, where the topic of blogs came up. she once again brought up her favorite post of ALL TIME from my blog. It's time to play what's in your purse.

So since I've been feeling like my purse weighs 50 lbs, and the hubs refuses to assist in carrying my luggage to and from anywhere, and that post delights her so much, combined with the fact it's a slow blog week, i thought I'd FINALLY clean my purse out. (Wendy this is for you.)

I took pictures this time.

prepare yourselves to be amazed (slash) horrified. I find sometimes those emotions go hand in hand . like watching a wreck or an especially bad outfit, you just can't look away.

I find its totally appropriate my blog title is Mary poppin-ish, my purse is too, or at least that's what people tell me on a semi regular basis.

let us begin...

here is the vehicle for the contents you are about to behold.

Black leather, 2 outside zipper pockets, 1 inside zipper pocket, and 2 inside cell phone pockets.

large enough to fit a whole hardbound school binder inside.

for ease I categorized the contents.

• Office supplies.
  

my pink folder and the manual for church this year
ok inside my pink folder is-
a lined notebook,
6 thank you cards i haven't delivered,
a pack of extra blank thank you cards,
a christmas card,
an envelope of cash,
a pack of New moon cards from Burger king,
my christmas receipts shoved in the back pocket.

6 of my favorite type of pen in assorted colors (the pink one lives in the pink folder)
1 pink sharpie
1 pink gel pen
1 pink mechanical pencil

• Beauty supplies.

I think you can read the picture of my assorted chapsticks, lipglosses and lipstick.
my makeup bag contents are not displayed but if you wanna know i'll tell ya another time.

2 hair bands, 1 red hair flower, 1 pink polka dotted brush, 1 sanitizer

2 more tubes of lipstick new in the bag (it was buy 2 get one free!) santa forgot to put them in my stocking though.

• First aid-the same sanitizer as the beauty supplies pic and 1 wrinkled up bandaid
  

• Food storage.

a bag of reese's with 6 mini peanut butter cups,
2 new packs of 5 gum, one green flavor and 1 sour/sweet flavor
1 new pack of stride green gum + 1 piece
1 homemade sucker
1 altoid small (see pink arrow)
3 sweet stripes peppermint balls
1 pack of redhots
1 ball of peanut butter cup wrappers(see yellow arrow) the equivalent of trash

a 1/4 full bottled water

• Electronics.
  

my cell phone charger
1 box with camera cards
1 jazz camcorder
1 point and shoot camera

• Random crap.

1 barbie lip gloss i forgot to give to hope from pierce at christmas
1 card case without cards in it.

6 new flashlights that belong to the kids as gifts from grandpa John (the hubs dad)
given to them tonight. and no longer in my bag.

• Papers

assorted receipts floating free in the bag, mainly fast food, grocery, or atm receipts.

2 dance recital programs and 2 tickets.


3 bills. 2 hospital and 1 water bill.

• Trash.

a grocery list,
pizza coupons
a tag from my new jeans
a empty box of gum stuffed with wrappers
plastic wrap from candy, straws and whatnot.

• Money.(sadly the category with the least amount of items)

my brown old wallet still full of receipts, change and lipsticks (2 tubes)

plus my new fabulous wallet i bought as a bunko prize but decided i needed it and would be sad if i didn't win it, so I'm keeping it, merry christmas to me.which has my cards and 5 bucks cash. a check from blogher and my ID's

• 

3 single $1 bills and 19 cents change.

So what do ya think? is it a bag of tricks? a magic leather bag? the black hole? the pit of despair?

note once again, there are NO diapers or wipes even though I've still got a kid in diapers.

my cell phone could be included in electronics except i primarily keep it in my bra-ket (bra pocket) so i took the electronics pic with my camera phone so i could include my camera in the picture.

no car keys? yeah the hubs used my keys and didn't put them back tonight.

and at any given time there can be toys, jewelry, lotion,scissors, etc. just like the flashlights were just for last night. things change pretty quickly in there. yesterday there was a DS lite and charger. last week it had a bottle of olives, a salami and a bottle of sugar scrub and a bottle of chocolate chips. when i was going to math class on Tues/Thursday i had my giant (scientific) calculator.

yes. my bag is magic.

sure it's heavier than a small child but magical all the same.

what's in your purse?

list it.

take pictures. (or don't.)

reveal the nitty gritty.

do you dare confess the contents of the deepest darkest recesses of your purse?
