Eva’s Byte #446 – Downsizing
my handbags…
For years, I’ve carried oversized totes going hither, thither, and yon about my business—color-coordinating my brown or black arm candy with what I’m wearing.
The other day, it dawned on me that I don’t need “no stinkin’” oversized handbags. Nor do I need to switch over my brown and black handbags as often as I do. With this new outlook in mind, I weeded out my existing herd and donated most of my totes to Savers. Those that I’ve kept are like old friends you can’t part with—my Calvin Klein leopard tote, for one.
I purchased two downsized satchels of different styles in versatile colors: dark wine for this season’s use; neutral tone for spring.
While I don’t consider myself a slave to fashion, I am a girly-girl who’s a pushover for designer handbags—on sale! And, my handbags must have at least one outside pocket, in addition to the typical inside slip pockets.
In the capacity of a writer, I’m on the downside of drafting chapter 45 (1409 words thus far) along my Contemporary work in progress. My characters come with excess baggage.
*May each of us have the wherewithal to unload our heavy burdens.
My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
