For my every day bag, I use a backpack. Gone are the days of a tiny wristlet only containing my debit card and my lipstick. *If I am doing out on a date, for example, then I leave my backpack at home and take a smaller, more elegant, pocketbook.
In this season of life, I bring everything but the kitchen sink with me. I never know when I will have time to read, or take some notes, or plan. Sometimes I have an hour before I pick up the kids so it’s good to have stuff with me. Plus, I like to feel prepared. The contents of my bag vary from season to season – in summer, I add a small bottle of sunscreen, in the winter, a tube of hand cream.
Without further ado…
Two calendars (soon to be one since we are on the cusp of 2024 being over)
One accessory notebook – bought in NY Botanical Gardens
Small notebook with cats – brought from Paris
Multiple pens+ a sharpie
Perfume
Lipstick(s)+ lip balms+mascara+eye brightener
Tampons/pads
Medicine+ cough drops +inhaler+nose spray because I had bronchitis last week
Wallet
Hand sanitizer
A wad of napkins from McDonald’s/some other restaurant
Tissues
A tea bag
A tube of hand cream
Post-it notes with writing on them. I write myself notes, place them into my backpack then address them later, either put them on my calendar or assign a time to complete the task.
Kindle
Epi-pen: R is allergic to some stuff so I always carry it with me
Ear buds
What’s in your bag?
