Isn't this teeny, tiny pink purse the cutest, most adorable lil thing you ever saw in the purse world?! The other week when Aunt Sue and I were briefly in Pensacola's new DSW, I spied this little gem in the neon yellow color below. I fell for it. Hard. Immediately. And couldn't get it out of my mind all week. So Monday, when Katie, Rhonda, Jacob, Neil, and I were P'cola after getting my shots, we all agreed that DSW was on the list of places we had to hit. There it still hung, tantalizing me. It's $35 price tag was giving me a bellyache though. So I hunted up a sales lady to see if the diminutive darlings were actually on sale even though there wasn't a sign proclaiming it. I was in luck, for she informed me that there were several of them in the back on the clearance rack! You have to keep in mind that this is me, queen of everything in her purse that you can think of {including salt packets}, that is wanting so badly to purchase a purse that is only large enough for a cell phone, a few plastic cards, and a penny or two! But, sometimes it is so worth it to be slightly silly and ridiculous! I walked out of DSW, the smitten owner of this purse purchased for $15.01 including tax!
{It doesn't hurt to start shopping and spending birthday $ before you even get it, right? Sometimes I really can put a whipping on procrastination!}
Thursday evening, at Katie's lovely bridal shower, they took a survey to see who had the most items in her purse. I came in first place at 30, with my dear mother coming in second with 27. I think this little purse will make 31! Carrying a purse within a purse makes perfect sense! Whenever I want to downsize, I'll simply pull my baby purse away from its mama, and go to town!
Speaking of birthdays, my school kids gave me the coolest coffee mug at my pretend birthday party on Tuesday! Sipping my joe from this colorful container is the perfect way to start the day...and its grippy bottom adheres even to my slanted podium! Awesome!
boo hoo! I didn't enter the contest cuz I was helping with the shower but I ran you some close competition... and then when I was digging for something later I found a piece of dowel (been carrying it for ages to find the right size to replace pegs in our quilt frames at sewing), an airplane (toy!), plastic silverware, a bib, q-tips, spare keys, an extra Walmart bag, and more!!!! That's all very necessary stuff when you've got kids! :) Dug out the airplane to entertain J in the waiting room today... used a couple Qtips on C... :{ ok... guess you probly didn't need all these details! LOL
