I was complaining today how sore my shoulders were. They are always sore and I have no reason… until I emptied my purse… My purse/bags are ALWAYS heavy and this is why:
2 cell phone cables
1 computer charger
A pencil case full of pens and flash drives
2 full water bottles
6 bags of peppermint tea
A 16oz bag of red quinoa
A 16oz bag of regular quinoa (I found a good deal and didn’t empty them out… oops)
A mini package of Everything Ritz Crackers
A Special K Caramel Pretzel Bite
A bottle of ibuprofen
A tablet
A car charger
A wallet
2 lip gloss/chapstick
1 loose pen
2 receipts
Deodorant
Keys
A funny email from a resident’s family member
$22.00 loose paper money
$2.42 in coins
A punch card
My cell phone (which I am using)
A planner AKA my life
And my Surface Pro 3
(Before I took this photo I put my Carpinito Brother’s haul away… 1 jalapeno, 2 green peppers, a bunch of green onions, and 1 zuchinni squash… which I carried around Fred Meyer’s thinking I didn’t need a cart because all I went in for was to get my Free Friday Coupon Treat… and I couldn’t find it)
I wish I had a scale to measure all of this unnecessary STUFF… It actually made me think about how much more unecessary STUFF I am carrying around my life. Deep thoughts today.
