Phew! Fewer things will be going back in the bag than what I pulled out. What happened here? I used to be the girl who carried the purse that barely fit her phone and wallet. I think E has some kind of blame here. I'm sure of it. Until I lived with her, I did not see the value in carrying books everywhere always but now it's a habit, as are my journal and notepad. I was so excited to be done with carrying a back pack but it seems that nothing has changed. Sigh.
