    The contents of my bag varies from day to day, but I typically have a few legal pads for notes, trace paper, a tape measure, blank CD’s, sd card reader/flash drive, and my external hard drive. The bag that holds it all is the one that I have been provided by SEI, from the company Leeds. Check the pic: http://flickr.com/photos/30795956@N08/2877822592/in/photostream/

    The contents of my bag are as follows:wallet, sunglasses, purell, small scale, umbrella, excedrin, snack bar, address book, tissue, business cards, schuylerville badge and some femine unmentionables. And maybe a stray paper here and there. Here are some of the contents artfully arranged in the SEI letters with the rest in a pile.

    My bag of choice is a standard issue SEI bag as well; the contents are as follows: business cards, blue painters tape, pens, my camera (pentax optio 5si), multitool (leatherman), scales, cold/flu relief, 3 stamps, Granville CDs, chapstick, rubber bands, an old wallet, ID badge, air travel itineraries, receipts (totalling $9,987) (getting married was expensive), check stubs (totalling $1,108), retirement account info, wedding vows, future letters drafted on sticky notes, various work papers/documents for whatever I am working on (Granville). That just about sums it up, I think I’ll clean out my bag now. Here’s the photo link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/30609288@N02/2882301138/

    My bag - no matter what the season, size, or style, consists of my wallet, paycheck stubs, bills, makeup, gum, Splenda, lots of keys, and post-its to remind myself not to forget this, that or the other thing in my daily life. My current bag is a black and silver Rafael handbag, which has seen better days…

    My bag comes in many shapes, sizes and colors. The answer to What’s in My Bag? is “Me”. The contents of my bag get me through each day; they are my life. From my wallets to my check books, my photos of my children, my daily medications, my keys, etc all tell a story about who I am, hence “Me”.

    I can’t belive that Michele V. didn’t mention food. Michele is our resident foodie and keeps us well fed.

    Michele V., Paula, and Emma - don’t forget to upload your photo to qualify for the contest.

    Well, I don’t know what kind of purse it is, but the tag says “made in china”. Anyway, I have an array of chapsticks and lip glosses, a brush, mulitple hair ties, pens, pencils, keys, LEED flashcards, lotion, cell phone, and a big, bright green wallet….the picture is coming soon!

  11. Michele VNo Gravatar said on September 29th, 2008 at 10:54 am

    These are my photos. I did actually have some granola bars in there but took them out before taking the photos. The food is actually a separate bag, I didn’t want to submit more than one!

    What’s in my bag? Nothing as exciting as the bag itself! Just purchased a Michael Kors (Project Runway judge) bag. This fabulous bag holds your typical stuff: wallet, make-up case, phone, etc. Oh yes, glasses too.

    My green Kathy bag is actually my diaper bag that needs some serious restocking before I leave the house today. I keep my gold clutch which is from Steve and Barry’s inside with all my cards, no money unfortunately, phone and my chapstick.

    My bag was provided by Wegmans….the bigger/stronger bag that holds more items! Usually once a month (but sometimes more)…..my bag will contain items to make an SEI Birthday dessert. In my bag this month are all the ingredients to make chocolate chip bar cookies with ice cream on top (minus the ice cream due to its melting factor). My bag this month contains Flour, Sugar (white and brown), Salt, Baking Soda, Butter, Vanilla Extract, Chocolate Chips, walnuts and the pan. So look out you October Birthday’s (Brian and Vic)…..tasty desserts are heading your way!

    In my red and black school backpack, titled “Volunteering is Cool”, since I got it from a youth volunteering group, is a science textbook, a binder with around 150 pages of looseleaf in one section, English sheets in another, science sheets in another, math sheets in yet another, and finally phys. ed sheets in the last section. I also have my school organization agenda from Schoolastic, a box of Kleenex in case I ever need some, a key to my house, 2 bingo cards that I recieved as part of a giveaway at school, 2 black Jaguar zip up pencil cases, a science lab duotang and a math scribbler.

    My bag is a Tommy Hilfiger purse that I got for a steal. It contains a plethora of items.

    1. Keys (lots and lots of keys)
    2. At any given time a book. The current one I have been working on for an eternity, I just never have the time to finish it.
    3. Hair Accessories
    4. Pens and a Sharpie
    5. My passport, in its cute little homemade passport cover (My purse is probably not the best place for it.)
    6. A mini-notebook
    7. My fake Louis Vuitton wallet (or so I assume it is fake because my dad brought it back from South Korea for me.)
    8. Lipglosses, lipsticks, and chapsticks galore
    9. Cellphone
    10. My miniature Vera Bradley bag which was given to me for my birthday (this is used to house my many lipglosses.)
    11. Mints
    12. Gum
    13. Adidas perfume
    14. Ibuprofen

    Sooo, as you can see at any given moment you may find me pawing through the depths of my purse to find a much needed item, which is usually my cellphone and it is ringing and I’ll never find it on time. Help!!! : ) In summation my purse is kind of like a dysfunctional Mary Poppins bag.
