PURSE-ONALITY!

What's in your purse?

I recently read a magazine article that says what you carry in your purse reveals hidden truths about who we are and the roles we play.

My husband calls my purse my "duffel bag." He finds it to be a tad too big. He also knows nothing about fashion.

On any given day, here's what can usually be found in mine:

Lipgloss. It's an addiction.

Baby wipes. Perfect for our trips to get donuts or spills in the car.

A can of tuna. Odd, I know. But, it comes in handy when I get hungry at work and I'm out of change for the vending machine.

Cheap toys from those fast-food kids meals. It never fails. My boys get bored with them in ten minutes, and I'm asked to hold them in the middle of Target.

7 debit receipts that I haven't written in. Greg HATES when I do that.

Sugar-free gum. And about 9 wrappers the boys left behind.

A juice box. Just in case.

A digital camera. Don't want to miss those moments that I can't get back.

Finally, about 7 "things-to-do" lists. I have a bad habit of writing these down at work, then forgetting about them in my purse. Guess they didn't get done.

The article says I am a practical, self-sufficient mom who doesn't like messy situations. Hey...not bad.

Sounds better than "A mom who is too lazy to clean out her purse."
