I was about to list everything in my BIG purse but that's more of a diaper bag containing mostly things for Blueb. My actual purse is a little wristlet so let's take the easy route.
- A wallet, which is a simple handmade fabric pouch with a snap that came along with a gorgeous handmade diaper bag that my friend Giggles Murkowski* gave me when I was pregnant with Blueberry. We usually use that diaper bag as a library book bag, but sometimes as a diaper bag when I want to streamline our trip and impress people with my wonderful style.
- medical insurance cards for me and the Blueb
- driver's license
- stamps
- Java Train Cafe frequent diner card
- debit card for our old bank (must cut up!)
- debit card for our new bank
- $50.25 cash
- Herberger's receipt
- Visa card
- cell phone (the old kind, not a smartphone)
- car key, house keys, and keys to unknown locks
- lower case "e" keychain
- green glass tile keychain
- Rainbow grocery card
- library card
- Nelson Cheese and Deli frequent buyer card
- key to the truck with a big green ribbon tied to it (must return to key box!)
- pen
- tin of Altoids smalls
- bareMinerals lip gloss in Sangria - the only reason I ever go to Sephora and the most I have ever paid for a makeup item ($15). It's quite similar to the lip gloss I bought from a shop in Mendocino and wore on my wedding day. I asked the associate at Sephora to match it as closely as possible, and she did great. I love it and this is my third vial.
- Kohl's credit card (must activate!), $20 Kohl's cash expiring this Sunday, and several "15% off entire purchase" Kohl's coupons which expire at various times, plus a coveted "20% off entire purchase" which expires next Wednesday, all wrapped in a rubber band. I plan to shop as soon as Stanley prints out and brings home the "$5 off purchase" coupon that arrived via email. Kohl's is going to pay me to take their merchandise.
Hooray! Done with the challenge! That was fun.
Things I gained from this challenge:
- I forced myself to write less than I wanted to, which was good because I was able to get the posts out on time without too much stress.
- I got into the habit of blogging and thought of a few topics I want to write about soon. We'll see if these posts materialize. For example, a sonogram should appear soon. By the way, we'll find out if Peachy* is a boy or girl next weekend!
- I got to hear from many of you in your comments and email replies, and that was nice.
- I got to think about myself a lot. I love thinking about myself.

As Dora would say... "you did it, you did it, you did it, did it, did it!!"
Congratulations on making it 30 days! I have really enjoyed reading all of your entries.
I was going to say "great job", but instead I'll say "congratulations, you completed the challenge" in light of our conversation yesterday! I enjoyed doing the challenge for the first half and then decided that it wasn't worth worrying over it when I didn't want to continue. Let's try it again some time, maybe vetting the questions, or making up our own questions/activities!
Nicely done. I would REALLY, *really* like to see you do the same thing - but answer the questions how you think a famous person would. For example: Einstein. Or Donald Trump. 30 is a lot though. But it would be interesting. I mean - can you just imagin what Einstein has in his purse?
....he might have some twine or wire. A good book - what kind of book...! Maybe even some paper... And no comb anywhere in sight.
