So, Cheri and Jenn recently posted what's in their purses, the description (and glossy color photos) of which have shown me I need purse rehab. Here is a list of what's in my purse at the moment. And a couple photos, carefully chosen to minimize nausea.
CONTENTS OF FAUX BROWN SUEDE LE SAC
(all coated in a fine dust of Goldfish crumbs)
--clean tissues
--dirty tissues (more of those)
--chewed wads of gum wrapped in gum wrappers (hey, at least I don't litter!)
--non-descript tan wallet, bulging with receipts, change, membership cards, and not a single bill
--a black leather business card holder containing my Nia business cards (no laughing)
--a tiny yellow leather photo holder with two photos of Jarrah, both over a year old
--Carmex (can't live without it)
--Covergirl Clean pressed powder (ditto)
--Clinique lipstick in Tenderheart (from a friend's "gift with purchase")
--quilted sunglass case, purchased for $3 at craft sale
--sunglasses from Target (part of the faux-Tortoise-shell finish stripped by nail polish remover)
--tiny child-proof bottle of Advil (can't live without that, either)
--Visine tears (ditto)
--grocery list from last week
--cell phone in knitted Techno-Cozy from Stitch n Bitch
--hand sanitizer in a tiny pump
--packet of restaurant crayons
--Children's Motrin tablets
--Waterbabies sunscreen stick
--take-out menu
--tube of Neutrogena hand cream (empty)
--black velvet scrunchie from the swap meet
What does this list say about me, Readers? Or shouldn't I ask?

It screams "Mom!" to me!
Compared to mine it says you have a very tidy pocketbook. And a very nicely knit cell phone case :).
I'm with smittenknitten. That sounds amazingly tidy and sane to me! I do love the fine dust from Goldfish crackers, bit. I don't know the last time I carried them in my purse, but little bits of those guys tag along with me everywhere I go, too.
I can relate to the part about the Goldfish cracker dust! I can one up you on the mom purse...dirty socks! YUCK! My friend and I have started a list, "You know you're a mom when...” I would like to see your list.
Loved this post! Though I don't technically carry a purse, I can totally relate, especially to the goldfish dust part.
Can we have a post about what you found underneath and between your couch cushions next? I would love to compare notes on that!
My favorite part was the thought bubble by the little knitted number. ;-)

@Cheri: Oooh, ya caught me!
@Anon: I have the dirty socks! Pink, size 3T! I must confess I left that off because it seemed just TOO revolting.
@Miss J: The thought bubble was there so you guys could compliment me on my knitting. ;)
Which is indeed very impressive!
;-) Thanks for sharing it.
