The Bag Lady

 
Ok, this is a what works for me post....I am a bag lady.  Not the kind who lives on the streets, but one who definitely lives out of a bag.  Case in point, these are my two "work" bags.  One I carry to work everyday with my mail to read, umbrella, sometimes lunch (encased in it's own "lunch" bag), etc.  The other is a bag I use while at work for when I have appointments, etc. 
 
I also have my library book bags at home.  By the way, I frequent 3 different libraries.  I have my church bag and my children's church bag.  I have started to combine these two.  We also use to have a 4H bag, we have a piano bag, and the list goes on and on.  If I did not have my bag system, I would be A Mess!!
 
I must admit, I am a complete and total lover of all things totes.  I have so many, I would probably have heart failure if I tried to count up the number I own.  I practically become giddy when I go to a conference and a free tote bag is included!!  I was also very disappointed when my youngest daughter said she could just use her school bag from last year....really?? 
 
I do feel like this system works for me, and I am an easy person to buy for because of this little obsession of mine.  However, my shoulder would probably like a break, and I also still carry a purse....that obsession would be a complete other post.
 
And that dear friends, is something that works for me!!

Friday's Fav Five

Today I am joining it with a new link up for me.  It is hosted by  Living to Tell the Story .   My Friday Fav Five list goes something like this... 1. My three older girls were still up watching television together when I went to bed last night.  My room is right next to the living room so I could hear their conversations.  Although I wasn't ease dropping, I did start to listen.  They were talking about casual and personal things.  I realized that they are all growing up and their conversations with each other are growing as well.  It was like listening to a group of 3 women talking over coffee.  My heart wanted to burst and I may have teared up or actually cried..... maybe. I am so thankful for this wonderful bond they will have with each other for the rest of their lives. 2.  I am just thankful it is Friday.... we have had snow and strep throat at our house this week.  I am ready to shut the books on this we...

On the Books for January 5, 2015

Today I am joining up with The Simple Woman to give you a peek into my daybook for this week...   Outside my window.... There is a light dusting of snow.  Nothing too intimidating...yet.   I am thinking... That a salad for lunch sounds good today.  I do not usually like salad so this is a little  weird. I am thankful... That I was able to spend quality time with my people the past week and a half.  I am wearing.... Work attire :( no more sweats until whenever I have to leave the house.   I am creating... I just purchased some new yarn over the weekend.  So I am getting ready to start a new scarf and some boot cuffs.   I am going... To Walmart on lunch.  Yep, back to normal this week.  I am wondering.... How many days until the next holiday :)  I am reading.... Just my devotional this week.  I am doing Jesus Calling again this year and maybe the Women of the Bible devotional as ...
