The Writing on the Wall (4 days until Vacation)

I just overheard my husband talking to Aunt Mabel about the fact that she really doesn’t need to bring her purse on vacation. ARE YOU INSANE? I hope he has deep pockets because I am not going to carry her additional accoutrements such as:

  • her inhaler
  • 100 tissues in various stages of use
  • nail file
  • tweezers
  • sewing kit
  • wallet that weighs 10 lbs.
  • AARP card
  • AAA card
  • all the other cards
  • rain bonnet
  • hearing aids
  • scraps of paper
  • 14 pens
  • 2 pencils with no point
  • safety pins
  • phone number list for emergencies
  • eye drops
  • eyeglass cleaner
  • checkbook
  • band aids from 1965
  • nail clippers

… and all that other stuff. Not. Going. To. Do. It.

I thought that was a pretty accurate account. I hope you are bringing enough Zanex, you're gonna need it!
