    What's in your handbag?

    Yes, it's done to death but I was reading a magazine article about what the Queen carries in her bag (including 5 or 10 pounds for the collection bag when she goes to church. That's a bit cheap *I* think).

    Mine is a mess of wallet, tissues, various receipts, spare change (notes and coins), paper diary, keys, phone, lip balm, mints and pens and paper. Lots of the generic stuff I have replicated in each handbag so when I switch bags I don't have to move everything. For a while I was carrying a sealed bag of ground coffee and a novel I'm reading (The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas) but my bag was too heavy so I took that out.

    Re: What's in your handbag?

    I got a bigger handbag for work a while ago which was a bit of a mistake because now it manages to accumulate far too much junk.

    So in the work handbag I know I have:
    * An umbrella
    * Phone
    * Wallet
    * Gift vouchers from Christmas and birthdays
    * Lip stick, lip balm and lip gloss (because you need all three )
    * A mini perfume roll on that I don't even like the scent of anymore
    * A pocket sized sewing kit (no clue why, since I don't sew)
    * Chewing gum
    * Prescription sunglasses and clear vision glasses
    * Stay Matte powder and brush for touch ups (no clue why either, as I never do any touching up)
    * Sunsilk Weather Protection cream for touch ups (again, never fix my hair up at work so why bother carrying it)
    * Lady things
    * Wet Ones
    * Hair brush (which I do have occasion to use)
    * A million receipts that have just been tossed in there instead of the floor of the car
    * Pamphlets for stuff that people shove in my hands at the shops which mostly I am too polite to decline
    * Hand cream
    * House keys and car keys
    * Mum's house keys
    * Bestie's house keys
    * Two packs of purse sized tissues
    * Panadol, Brufen, Mylanta and Panadeine (because you can never have enough drugs)
    * CPR pocket mask (from mandatory training day 8 months ago)
    * Fuel discount dockets which I can't use on a novated lease car
    * Pill case with Vit D because I forget to take it at home
    * Pocket camera

    Cripes. And it's not even full.

    When I go out for the day, I only have my wallet, phone, keys and camera.
