Purse/Tote Meme with picture

Yes, that's me.
I cannot take my own picture. Ugh.

Jamie so wonderfully tagged me for this meme. I hope you are all getting a good chuckle out of my purse.

Can you see it?

In my hand?

It's blue denim.

It currently holds:
  • one drivers license
  • 4 credit cards
  • 1 Sam's card
  • 1 library card
  • 1 HSLDA membership card
  • 4 medical/dental insurance cards
  • 1 auto insurance card
  • 1 hunting/fishing license
  • 1 child ID card (why only one?...)
  • 5 gift cards
  • 1 blackjack reference card (I don't know why)
  • 1 list of important numbers (I don't have a cell phone)
  • and one single dollar bill.

I haven't carried a purse in years. I didn't like always have to readjust it on my shoulder OR putting my head through the strap and emphasising my figure. Plus, I'd rather hold my kids hands than a purse handle.

This little wallet fits in the pocket of my jeans in the summer and my coat in the winter. I have my keys on a ring with a latch hook on them, and they get attached to the belt loop of my jeans.

A perfect hands-free solution.

Oh, the shirt? Sweatshirt. Cabella's. On sale. Like everything else I buy.

I tag Juli, Regina, Laura, Shelley, Laura, Theresa and Megan.

  4. Paula I can not say I have ever seen your purse in your front pocket?? No really I don't think I have?
    If we go somewhere you keep it in the van and put the cash in your pocket?

    Your lil purse puts me & my duluth pak to shame shame...I don't think the girls would want me to hold there hands anymore.

  6. First of all, you are BEAUTIFUL, Paula. Nice to 'see' you.
    Your purse is so tiny, I can hardly see it. So it's probably cute.

    What am I being tagged for? To show my purse?? I haven't been using one for years...just started again. My friend is a bag designer and made me a BEAUTIFUL one for my birthday. So what do I do?
    I'm not so good at this tagged stuff. Should I chase you? lol

  8. I think it's pretty smart to minimize or simplify. You have it down to the essentials and that is IT my friend. Often, I just shove my wallet in my coat pocket (in poorer weather) and my back (jeans) pocket (in nicer weather). My purse has never held a comb, brush or any other make-up item than lipstick or Berts Bees. I can't bother to carry about a bunch of junk I "might" need. Ugh. I LOVED this post!!
