Celebrate the freedom to read

13 things in Mel's purse I cleaned my purse out last night and look at the odd things I found. :) 1. A batting glove (Since it's all black it belongs to Rafe.) 2. A pacifier. (Little J's.) 3. Chapstick (Alys is addicted to the stuff. She got the habit of using it as a toddler from my dad.) 4. A spare key. (I'm supposed to give it to Nick.) 5. A CD. (I'm supposed to mail it to one of my aunts.) 6. Coupons. (My mom saves them for Nick. I'm supposed to give them to him. But sometimes I forget.) 7. A half a bag of chewy Sweet Tarts. (Left over from the last movie I saw) 8. My mojo bag. ( I never leave home without it.) 9. An S.L. Carpenter promo pen. (It's so cool. It lights up.) 10. My car keys. (Habit. I gave up driving last September.) 11. Yu-Gi-Oh! Cards (Rafe's always asking me to hold them.) 12. The October flyer for new movie video releases. (My mom's.) 13. A small packet of band-aids and Triple antibiotic ointment. (Can never be too prepared. ) Strange how most of them don't belong there. Until later~ ~Mel
