When I was little I used to LOVE going through my mom's, aunt's, grandmother's, purses! It's called being a snoop. You know we've all been there, being little sitting in church bored out of our minds! So what did you do? Snoop through whom ever purse you could find! That's for sure what I did. Now a days I have refrained from the purse snooping...Well... at least not in church sacrament anymore SOOoOoooOoo as I was cleaning out my purse this weekend it just hit me *ZAP* like a lightning bolt that you my dear faithful readers must be DIEING to know what's in Tierra's infamous purse. Well, I tell ya dear readers your wait is over. That's right, I'm opening it up and am letting you see it all. In dept and Personal. Consider this MTV Cribs, Purse Style."

Okay, over all this is what I ALWAYS have with me.

There. That's not so bad is it? Don't answer that!!!

Remember Jennifer Lopez from The Wedding Planner? And remember her bag of tricks for any emergency? Well, that's sorta what this bag is. I cannot stand to be anywhere and think that I might not have something i might need. Maybe OCD-ness but trust me...people thank me when there around me and I say "Sure I have one :)" Leah, I can just here you laughing at this one but here goes...We have Mini Lysol. Tell me you could not use this any where and I would walk away from you becuz you would probably be very germy. Ewww. Toothbrush/ Paste, comes VERY in handy. This one's for Mary...Tide to Go stick :) and Shout out wipes! Q-tips, Kleenex, Clorox wipes, Alieve, hairbands, bobby pins! On the final thought...Remember people I work in a hospital and germs 24/7!
Doesn't this just scream me?!?!?! All grocery lists, remember list, to-do lists, planning list, pretty much anything LIST Worthy goes in my damask notebook. Plus the ever handy calendar...which reminds me..Mary has a birthday coming up!!!
The basic makeup bag. That is if I'm lucky to remember to put my powder and blush in it...this is all I carry. The basics in make-up ness....Powder, blush, brushes, mascara, eye liner, lip glosses & lipstick, perfume roller, & my favorite prized compact that Mary gave me for my 18th birthday.

I hate carrying a purse but what woman can do without one. My daughter Amy made fun of my purse until she needed some nail clippers one day. Guess who had them?? I actually carry a little purse to put my wallet and keys in when I go shopping because the big one gives me body aches if I have to carry it. I have to admit though, yours is much bigger.
What about the things you stick up your nose? Did you forget that or do you no longer carry them? I talked to Jessi yesterday. Call Me
Tierra.. (aka Mary Poppins)
I thought I had alot... Oh dear..
I just want to peek into the future at what your bag will look like when you have children.. :)
Fun tag.. I will do it. I want a cute Valentine card from Tierra!
Hope your having a good day!
So um yeah secretly. Confession: I do love to snoop but haven't in like 15 years. It just always amazes me to see what people cant do without. On behalf of all us Snoopers thanks Tierra.
Oh wow, you are certainly prepared. I have a small purse I carry with just my wallet, keys and phone when I'm out sans children. When I have the children with me, I'm always toting a diaper bag, especially with an infant. I don't carry as much as I used to because I have a diaper bag that matches my stroller and car seat and it's not as big as the one I used when the older boys were small. I'm sacrificing the space for the fashion coordination. It just gives me a little thrill to see it beside the stroller or carseat...lol. I know, motherhood does strange things to people.
Love everything! You have SOOOOO much stuff in your purse!
Wow!! it doesn't look big enough to hold all that! if I go on a trip you are sooo coming with me, I wouldn't have to worry about forgetting anything!!
My purse includes my checkbook, "cards of all types" a diaper and keys. Occationally it includes a kleenex, receipts and a WIC folder.... but usually just the bare necessities. I would love the whole lysol thing though, that would be awesome in the grocery store! I will have to watch for it, for now we use wet wipes.
Great post!

You already know what's in my Dooney =) I have resently added a giant bottle of IBuprofen...to help with my resent headaches. Oh, I would kill for a Mt. Dew right now. I guess it will be okay if you want to bring your nasty beverage of choice on saturday. I'll try not to fight you for it. Hee, hee I am getting so excited for saturday. I can't wait. What time are you coming over to help set up?? Oh, T. we are going to have so much fun. So far there will be 13 people....woohoo can't wait! can't wait! can't wait!

Wow, you have a lot of stuff in that thing. Stuff that you need I might add. This was a cute post.
I stopped carrying a purse because I kept leaving it places. So now I have a little wallet and now a diaper bag. Well it's a diaper backpack. I could do that one.
