I’m not a person who has a million expensive purses. I’m not even a person who has one expensive purse.  That’s doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t like at least one though, it just means that I have never justified the cost so I have stuck with affordable. I also like a really big purse. I never bothered to carry a diaper bag when my kids were young, I just threw everything in my large purse and it did the job because I didn’t like the look of diaper bags in my price range.

Pinterest and Packing Lists

On one of my mommy boards there was a post of the ten most Sanctimonious mother Facebook posts (I believe compiled from the Sanctimommy Facebook page). The comments after it were a hilarious competition of everyone trying to outdo each other in a mocking sanctimonious way. Apparently many women’s children cry diamonds and shit rainbows. I was like, “I have you all beat. My daughter literally shit diamonds once.” Story in a nutshell: Tom was a goldsmith. His mom watched Roo at their work when she was little and I was also working. She got in to an area she shouldn’t have and ate diamond chips. The rest is left to your imagination. True story.

According to Pinterest people seem to like my packing lists I make. They also like my Capsule Wardrobe but I have only done one of those so you can’t really compare the numbers between the two. I’m glad that people like them and come over to see what other ones I have because I really enjoy making them. I think it gives me a kind of creative outlet for someone who doesn’t have a lot of hobbies, pastimes, creative pursuits, what-have-you. I have no musical talent, acting ability, or artistic talents. I can draw okay, but only if I am copying something. Tell me to draw from my imagination and you will end up with a blank page. Continue Reading
