You Can Tell a Woman By the Contents of Her Purse

While with my grandma Oopeedoop this summer, she asked me for a pen and when I started pulling items out of my purse she said "good gol, Tracey, what all do you have in there!".... so it got me thinking and I dumped out my entire tiny purse.

Here is what I found:


7 lipsticks and chapsticks
8 receipts
6 pens
5 rubber bands
3 packs of gum
2 packs of tissues
2 hair clips
2 nail files
2 bobby pins
1 Tupperware container with 15 ibuprofen pills and 7 Excedrin pills
1 cell phone
1 note pad
1 Thomas Train watch
1 AA battery pack
1 large day planner
1 piece of chalk
1 popsicle stick
1 pair of sunglasses with a case
1 check book
1 large overstuffed wallet

and finally
1 pack of TUNA


That's right, you heard me, a pack of tuna... everything but the kitchen sink. My grandma and I laughed a long time over this one.

So what does this jumble of junk say about me?

Answer: I am a nutcase who obsesses over fresh breath, moist lips, and hair. I am a mother of a 4 year old son who demands constant entertainment (hence the Thomas watch, popsicle stick, chalk, pens, notepad, and batteries for his Leapster) and a mother of a daughter who frequently sneezes her insides out (hence the tissues). I am a wife who may have too many headaches due to the lack of sugar from doing Atkins with her husband (hence the ready made tuna packet). And I am a grandaughter who took Grandma's advice too literally when she said "it is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it."

Bottom line: I am a psycho-path
