I just switched from my Kohl's Vera Wang, huge black bag to my new red crushed patent leather winter bag. It doesn't have enough compartments, but it sure is pretty.

I keep my wallet with credit cards, other business cards, medical cards, etc. etc. too much change, some money, pix of my grandkids, those plastic thingies you use at the supermarket or the drug store to get discounts, all the Christmas receipts, and probably more in it. It must weigh about 2 pounds.

I also have another case with my mp3 player, my cell phone, spare batteries, and 2 sets of headphones in it. There's another case with a spare set of car keys, lip gloss, a scissor, tweezers, eye drops, and that's about it. Then I have my reading glasses, comb, and some pens, in my zipper compartment.

I have a small umbrella and rain hat in the middle, a billfold with my car insurance stuff, some paper towels for emergency yorkie poop cleanup, my planner, and some coupons.

I just weighed it - the bag weighs 5 pounds, the wallet weighs 2.5 pounds.

No wonder I need my chiropractor!

After reading my own post compared to yours, I can see how ridiculous it is to carry around so much stuff. I'll clean it out soon and see how I survive.
