What a morning!

Well I did something today that I never should - well actually two things. First, I started an organizing project before work - never a good idea, but each time I do it, I think, "this time will be different." It was 'trash day' again and I hate putting out a half-filled can when I have lots of things to get rid of. I thought, I'd just look in my bedroom closet to see if there were any bulky things I could quickly toss in the garbage. 
I am happy to report that I threw away 9 purses. I have to confess that I am a serial purse monogamist. I find one I like and stick with it until I see a newer, prettier one I want instead. I always think that I'm going to use the older ones, but they get stuck on a shelf in my closet and I forget about them until the next discard has to be shoved in there. There is one exception - I have a cute little one that I break out for a few weeks each Summer. It was made from shiny candy wrappers in Mexico and I adore it! I also have a funeral purse that I really only use on those occasions; it's big enough for some Kleenex, a small wallet, keys and waterproof mascara. It is a tasteful black with a short handle. Those two are staying as well as my current fave. The other (+/-) 5 will probably go into the garage sale box as they are still in good shape and should not be cluttering the landfill.
The second hideous thing I did before work was to use a brand new kind of hair-gel type product on a day that I did not have enough time to rinse it out and start over. I lived with crunchy hair all day - oh well, next time it will be different!
