I've come a long way...

with what I keep in my purse and packing to go away on trips. Really, I have. :)

I am feeling so proud about what all (or really what I don't have in my purse right now) that I decided to take a picture. I am switching from one Big Buddha bag to another.


I have become smart and keep some things in my classroom and at home, that way I don't have to tote them around. I even keep some of these in my car too. Like: my thermometer, advil and tylenol, an umbrella, koozies (essential right?), lotion, a brush, a lint roller, gum, room spray, dental floss and toothbrush, and a change of clothes. I even have a Bible in each of these locations.


Right now (and pretty much at all times) I am carrying around: A yellow legal pad for taking notes, Bargain Bazzar tickets, Vera Bradley pens and a few other favorite kinds of pens, my TJ Maxx wallet that I love, my keys, my classroom/school keys, whistle, and id tag, my camera, several jump drives (one is broken and stays open at all times), my iPhone, some Firefly and John Wind jewelry that I took off at work, my Costas, some hand sanitizer, my Kate Spade cosmetic bag (that was a gift from one of my babies) with some make-up basics and lots of lipstick colors inside, more lipstick and Blistex, bobby pins, pony tail holders, and my new favorite all nighter hairspray.

Now, of course...at any given time you might find: shoes, a Tervis tumbler, perfume, a book or two, a scarf, gloves, vitamins, my planner, a flat iron, or other items in my purse too. It just depends on the size of the bag that I am using. I will never live down keeping a pair of high heels in my purse at a church function.

Gotta love staying organized! Now, I am going to tackle my school tote tonight while I watch my favorite...yep...Dance Moms! :)
