(More info about Irma stuff, when I can get the pesky pix to load!!)
That time of year again; ye ole annual purging o’ the purse. Since I have a fairly small one now, it could probably be bumped up to biannually, at least!
I know, I know! No one I know can believe I bought an orange one!!
Here’s the pix of this go round. Start.
1 lonely earring. That I’ve only worn once, cuz I hate intensely dislike the colors. (Well, I brought them to coordinate with a shirt, that then I got rid of too, cuz I don’t like those colors. DUH!)
How many purple pens do I need in my purse??
Hint: probably not this many. And I definitely don’t need the orange one! No matter what color my purse is!
Receipts, mostly trash. Except the one for rent, and the one with survey code for free Wendy’s sandwich!
Some more VIT= very important trash.
DD1’s credit card, to get gas, in Vanronica. Yeah, that was pretty much purged immediately, back into her hot little hand! (DD’s, not Vanronicas’!) But honey, it was orange, and I just couldn’t see it against the lining of my purse!
2 things hand sanitizer. Since one is Norwex, guess which one is being purged??
I had previously purged the useless, long, skinny strap:
Finally, we’re down to the lining.
Cleaning the lining will have to wait for another day. I’m bushed! Lol.
An 8 house post. Brought to you by the letter “P”, and the color orange.

Great work. I am not sure where to start the purging in my 12 year old home. Perhaps when we move, I will dump everything and start over. I like your cleanliness motives.
Has Irma gone ?

Thanks, Susie! Dana White goes by the visibility rule. Stand at your front door, and look around. What is the first thing people see? Work on that. But only 15 minutes at a time, so you don’t overwhelm yourself!
Oh yes, she left Sunday night/early morning.
She was much overrated, in my book!

Yes it is always like that. Things we worry about the most, almost never come to pass and those that we least expect have a habit of turning up.

*snicker* I currently have THREE purses I’m ‘juggling’…I have one ‘church’ purse (which is really a cloth bag and there because I don’t want to carry 50 tons of crap to church. 50 tons of crap is in the ‘old’ purse. I’m seguing to a new/old purse. I think I bought it a couple of years ago and I’ve never used it (possibly because it didn’t have a zipper and I was going on vacation and am paranoid about open bags hanging off my shoulder..) I’m trying to purse purge the 50 tons into something more manageable, but we all know how THAT goes. I’m also relieved greatly that someone else has as much ‘stuff’ in their purse as I do. *phew* (you’re hilarious btw, just in case you didn’t realize..)

Oops!! 50 tons might possibly be a clue that’s time to purge! 😉
Thank you so much, Embeecee!! I always love to hear how funny I am!

What? You’re supposed to clean those out? I never knew! hehehehe. Just kidding. I change purses so often that they get cleaned whenever I change them. I have a purse organizer that I keep all my essentials in, it goes from one purse to the other. You’d like it, it’s purple. ^_^

I have learned my lesson – I have the tiniest purse I could find, so I collect minimal junk, I do still collect junk mind, just not as much as I used to.
