What I Carry

Everywhere I go, I carry a purse. I used to carry over-the-shoulder bags because I have a tendency to forget things. But as I have gotten older, I have made the switch over to purses. My purse is medium sized but the one I use currently is on the larger end of medium. Over time, I have realized my selection of purses has gotten bigger and bigger and of course, heavier and heavier. I tend to throw everything in there and it just starts to accumulate. Inside my purse, I always include my phone which is a must in life. I waste so much time on it, it’s depressing. I also have my wallet and I carry exactly $11 in bills and whatever change I have left. To me, $11 is a perfect number because it doesn’t feel like you’re carrying too much money, but you certainly won’t be short. I also include my intermediate license because I drive now, and a keychain of keys and membership cards. And I always carry extra contacts just in case something happens. My eyesight is so poor there’s no possible way I could go five minutes without them. So because I have Dailys, I can just use a new pair.
