It’s empty your pockets and dump your bag day!

Katie’s Bags by Katie.

Reading and responding to comments is like having a Cuppa. I get cozy and read every word as if the writer is sitting in the garden with me.

The bad thing is I don’t filter.

The good thing is, I trust and feel connected. So when Swaroopa Gadgil asked what was in my bag

I dumped it:

  • phone bag/wallet with cards and stuff
  • sunglasses
  • book, notebook, pens
  • freshly ironed hankies (at funerals and weddings I have a stack to pass out to tearful people)
  • lavender, spruce, and frankincense essential oils
  • keys

This has come up before:

Your turn: empty your pockets and dump your bags!
