Just For Fun

Monday, January 09, 2006

• Chloe decided it would be fun for all of us to share the contents of our bags, right now, this moment, without leaving anything out. I took her up on it because it sounded like exactly the kind of thing I would do anyway, so minus the crumpled kleenex, this is what I found...
• 
• one summer wallet (I am too lazy to change to a wintery coloured one; this one matches my watermelon summer bag)
• one brush with hair band wrapped around the end just in case of bad hair day
• one set of work keys (back into use tomorrow, I'm afraid)
• two fancy pencils and one wooden pen (yes, you heard me right, I like interesting writing tools)
• loose change (32 cents to be precise)
• one CD (with the photos I had sent for the expensive processing)
• three bandaids with cartoons on them (you never know when a child gets a scab or a mum gets a blister)
• Canadian passport (I always leave it there so I know where it is the night before I am about to travel somewhere; I had a bad experience once, and learnt my lesson)
• two small broken candy canes (not mine)
• a photo of my children (what good mother wouldn't!; well, actually it's there for me to take tomorrow)
• a lottery scratch ticket worth $2. (I always get some in my stocking; the only time I ever play the lottery)
• my (very old, but still working) abused cell phone
• coupons for diapers and loose receipts for god knows what
• a pink notebook (in case I have a good though and need to pull over to the side of the road to write it down, or to keep addresses, or one of a thousand lists I make in a day
• stamps (because I've recently mailed nice things to blog friends)
  
  

• hand cream (because the Canadian winter is harsh on hands)
• hand sanitizer (slather this on if we go our for dinner right after picking up my son from preschool...)
• three types of lip gloss; Body Shop cranberry for fancier times, lobello for functionality, and Avon snowman for a nice smell.
  

Go ahead, call me a loser.

Pretty boring, I wish I had some great secret hidden in there. What's in your bag?

   I carry a chocolate brown messanger bag that I LOVE. But I swear to goodness, I could live for a week out of what I have in that thing. On the up side....I usually have what either of the kids need. lol!

   Wow Cathy, that's a heap of stuff. Still thinking about doing mine ... might be a bit embarassing, as I haven't dug around in the depths of it for ages. Who knows what I might find, or how long it's been there !!! Scary stuff !!!

   Lisa;
   Sorry to hear it blew up in your face; maybe today will be better.
   
   Anhoni;
   Waiting for someone with something interesting! ;)
   
   Jase;
   Oh, not just for girlies; what's in your bag? ;)
   
   Angel;
   Actually, on many days I stuff even more in there...
   
   MomyBlogR;
   Take a photo!
   
   Connie;
   I'd love to see yours!
   
   Meow;
   I thought mine would be scarier that it was; but I didn't show all the kleenex tissue. I am awaiting yours! :)
   
   Richard;
   I had stopped by earlier and posted (three times I think;) but you had a thing on there theat meant you reviewed comments before they were posted. I just went over and posted now and it worked fine. It is an awful feeling when you've messed something up with your blog. I deleted my entire first one by accident; thus the title of my current blog.

   note to self: my cell phone is also missing.
   I quite like the fact that i am not the only person who has 2-3 different kinds of lip gloss in her bag.
   Your bag is very interesting. Especially the wooden pen. An environmentalist through and through!
