    Maybe you moms out there will understand! Being that I work with kids, I find the RANDOMEST stuff in my purse! This morning, as I was paying for my coffee, I found 2 SEASHELLS in there!! LOL WTH?! Some other things I found:

    Toy cars
    Binkies (pacifiers)
    Cheerios
    Floss (????? This one totally confused me)
    Treasures (beads, confetti etc)
    Refrigerator Magnet

    I know there's been other stuff...just can't think of it off the top of my head.

    Haha! I can relate. I was at a bar last weekend, and went to settle the bill when a plastic pickle fell out of my purse. Let me tell you, the jokes were flying.

    I don't have kids, but I teach preschool so random stuff ends up in my purse from time to time. :)

    I also once went out to dinner straight from work, and thought my butt must be looking particularly good that day, due to all of the people seeming to notice it. Went to the bathroom only to see a bright pink paint hand print squarely on the right cheek of my pants. It might have been a nice gesture for one of my friends to let me know!

    OH yeah!! That's right! I remember you taught preschool! Let me just tell you, when I'm going out straight from work, I keep a pair of extra clothes in my car...never know when I going to end up with paint, formula, spit up, markers etc on my clothes!

    P.S. A can of tomato soup?? Why no fish crackers? :confused:
    I don't like fish crackers. Otherwise, I'm sure they would have been in there, too. :)

    6 extra double D replacement batteries and a spare kickstand just in case.
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.
