I was/am part of a photo group that uses this as a theme. I haven’t done it in ages, but Fridays I clean out everything that has accumulated in my shoulder bag over the week. While it’s not a very large bag, it carries quite a bit and I thought you’d be amused, so here you are: (sorry, it came out blurrier than I expected…)
More or less in order, top to bottom, left to right:
- At top, my lovely bag
- A white chocolate macadamia nut cookie for hubby (his fave! providing I don’t forget it’s in there and/or completely smoosh it))
- Two elbow pads for use at work
- My wallet and a comb
- My ankle splint (yay! I’m not wearing it at the moment! If an ankle could breathe a sigh of relief, then mine would…)
- A box of straws. Erm, yeah.
- A hair tie, which ought to live in the bunny bag.
- My emergency umbrella, which is addition to my full-sized dragonfly umbrella that I also carry with me. Because I’m, prepared, yes.
- My arthritis gloves for cold/pain.
- Row 2: My keys! With store cards..
- A mess of receipts, notes, store cards and etc.
- A plastic holiday egg (you *really* don’t want to know, trust me…)
- A broken necklace. :{
- An amber ring ❤
- An earring I thought that I had lost! Hooray! I hope I can find the mate now…
- A pair of pens. You can’t see it, but the flowered one says: “Elisabeth’s Pen. Steal it and I’ll kill you.” (our vendors love me!) ;D
- My inhaler, travel pill bottle for vitamins, hand sanitizer, hand cream, lip balm, and keychain torch.
- A tissue packet, my kitty pill case for prescriptions, and my super-secret high-security work passcard! oooOOOooo!
- My bunny bag with toothpicks, plasters, hair elastics, and other bits and bobs. My bunny is getting quite dirty- perhaps time to toss it in the next wash…
- A cup/can holder for cold things and/or when my hands are bad.
- Antibacterial wipes, for EVERYTHING.
Not shown:
- My smartphone, since I was using it to take the picture.
That actually wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. OH, I forgot my netbook, wireless mouse and adapter, no wonder! And a cup of snack crackers. Erm.
Other interesting things you can occasionally/frequently find in my bag:
- A can of Mountain Dew
- A yoghurt cup
- A tire iron (admittedly, this was only once, but it was hilarious!)
- A metal ware fork and/or spoon
- A clear plastic case with chopsticks
- A book
Elisabeth, No balled up kleenex or gum wrappers, or mints, or receipts, or phone chargers, or a handful of loose change, old grocey lists, pens that are out of ink, or unidentifiable fuzz? You are way too tidy!

You missed that big pile of receipts and notes to myself that I always forget are in my bag! lol
