Filch-It Friday: What's in YOUR tote bag?

Hurray for Filch-It Friday! Today I'm filching the idea from Ava Von Snarky and her What's in YOUR bag? post.

I just purchased a new handbag. I don't change bags very often. But I love bright colors and I'd still been carrying the black bag I used for a funeral last month. I saw this bright one at Target and it was on sale so I took a chance on it.

I always have such high hopes for my handbags. I have strict requirements (like an outside pocket for my keys, an inside pocket for tic-tacs and lipstick, etc., place for my cell phone) And I truly want to be a tiny handbag person but I never will be. I just carry TOO MUCH STUFF. And, really looking at everything I carry, I can see part of my problem. Four different pairs of eyeglasses, for one thing. Prescription sunglasses, prescription distance glasses, and two pairs of magnifying reading glasses. What was I thinking?

New Handbag from Target (pronounced tar-GHAY)

And here's the sorry mess I carry around with me...two out of three cats had to come see what I was doing as soon as I started this project. They're the dark furry lumps at the outside edges...

Love the new bag! I got a white tote at Target for the summer, and now my physical therapist is saying NO NO NO! Well, I'll wear it when he's not looking ;-)

Peace - D

There are portions of two cats showing. Because they are constantly glued to my side.

I will not be filching this one. It would be very embarrassing for the family (old milky bottles etc).

Why 4 pairs of glasses?

I didn't realize I had that many in my bag. I grab and go! Two pair belong in my car.
