I went through THREE different purses in a period of about a month - I was on a mission to DOWNSIZE. My husband was ready to kill me for all the money I spent on my purses then on the KB.
I was constantly looking at the things I carried around and asking myself "do I REALLY need this with me at all times?" So I went to an "essentials" purse (pretty small) and then I have another larger bag that I keep in my car with stuff I might need once in awhile or "ad hoc".
I've gotten it down to a science now. I can carry my purse and the KB at least long enough to get into a store without killing my back. Most of the time for quick errands I just put my now VERY small wallet, keys and phone in the outer pockets of the KB, Pheebie jumps in and we're off. Most of the stores I go to (ie: Target) have carts so I usually don't even need to carry for long.
When people I see are impressed that I FINALLY got down to a small purse, I don't tell them that Pheebie was the reason I did it. :-) |
I need to do this. I have so much stuff in there that just isn't needed. Hmmmm, a good excuse to buy a new purse!!
