What's in your purse or wallet?

I don't usually carry a purse because I don't have many things. An I.D., debit card, and keys. Now, when I carry a backpack, it's a whole other story. It's bigger and there's more stuff I know I'm going to need. I have my sunscreen, lip gloss, first aid kit, baby wipes, telephone numbers, a book, and a camera, occasionally.

My wallet has credit cards and money. A bottle opener. Always a single dollar bill that was given to me. It's bad luck to have an empty wallet and no money. Sometimes I have a little more than a dollar. I have a zipper on one side of my wallet that destroys my license. I carry stamps, and I have a danke sticker I got in Germany for donating money to something.

Well, there's cash. Uh...let me think.Can I check it? Okay, an ATM card, credit cards, a few business cards, my USD I.D., Triple A, my health insurance, and a business card from the captain of the police department. There was some stuff I was doing where I was dealing with the police. Maybe I shouldn't say that, though.

I have my wallet. So, of course, there's money in there. Hopefully. The rest of the things in my purse...let me think. A checkbook, glasses, coin purse, small compact with a comb, and some lipstick. Well, those are the things that are always in my purse. Sometimes I'll have a few other odds and ends.

I have gum, which I shouldn't, because of my braces. There's lotion, a planner, cell phone, lip gloss, and a toothbrush; again, because of my braces. I can't tell you all of the things I have in there; it would take too long. It's a really big purse, so I'm able to get a lot of stuff in there.

I have a wallet in my purse, of course. Makeup, keys, a backup tampon, a Dallas Cowboys keychain for good luck. That's my favorite team, and I never lose at the casinos when I have that with me. I have a book, a granola bar in case I get hungry. And there are photos in my wallet.
