Keys go in a front pocket. Lip balm and loose change in the other.<br /><br />I actually periodically _try_ carrying a purse, but I find it so annoying to have to keep track of it that I eventually stop. Plus, it's nice to not have that extra weight hanging off my shoulders...<br /><br />Now baggage in my home, that's another story! :-DSusan Tomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01532464326705599296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155965142976731610.post-52824964703866217832011-03-24T09:14:22.893-07:002011-03-24T09:14:22.893-07:00I feel the time for another Karmic Clean-out comin...I feel the time for another Karmic Clean-out coming on!

One holds my tiny wallet (enough room for cash, ID, 5 credit cards (only one of mine is a credit card, the rest are like yours), my smart phone and some hand wipes. The other pocket has my comb, some tissues, my keys, lip gloss and receipts of the day. The whole thing is about 6 inches wide, by five inches high, and 4-5 inches deep. I can wear it over my shoulder or tuck it into my pannier. The little bag even has loops on it so that it can be attached to a belt, though I've never tried that. I meant to only use it in the summer, when I bought it last Spring, but I love it so much, that it's all I carry most of the time. It's easy to travel light if one has a well organized purse, and a well organized smart phone!Wilma Flanaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06024270772692389886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155965142976731610.post-62167850659052954962011-03-21T14:46:11.097-07:002011-03-21T14:46:11.097-07:00Glad you liked it, Sherry!

Every time I carry it I get compliments. My two little pouches can transfer easily from panniers to purse and back again.<br /><br />But I'm trying to be ruthless about not feeling I must be prepared for every contingency. Out went the mini bottle of hand lotion, the hand sanitizer (which just helps the stronger, nastier bacteria to survive anyway), the metal business card holder (looks nice but weight is excessive for everyday use), the extra coin purse that had all those extra pieces of plastic "just in case." <br /><br />Since I also want to be more mindful about my purchases, I don't want to carry plastic that encourages impulse shopping. Stripping down the wallet contents can be good for the bank account as well as for the soul :D.<br /><br />barbBarb Chamberlainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09000768706045663322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155965142976731610.post-54533434047319735362011-03-21T13:32:30.786-07:002011-03-21T13:32:30.786-07:00Barb~I love this!

In a bigger sense, one of my goals for 2011 has been to get rid of stuff I don't need or that causes me anxiety. It has been one of the best goals/resolutions ever! I don't know about the purse, though, I love me a big purse :)Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03490453140598561189noreply@blogger.com
