mom stink: purses

 

Why is it that once we become a Mom

our bag weighs over 25 lbs and is lined with plastic?

It is so NOT sexy!

I can survive off the contents of my purse

 for literally 72 hours.

Does this look familiar?

  

And why the TACKY looking bags

 that scream "I am a MOM"???

To AVOID becoming this woman:

Let's follow some basic rules.....

1- If your youngest child now attends High School then it's time to get rid of your diaper bag.

2- If your bag outweighs you.....yep, time to get a new one.

3- If you have back and shoulder pain ON ONE SIDE, and that is the side you carry your bag on.....time for a new bag.

4- If you can't get through airport security in ONE try and they have to question you regarding the contents of your bag.....you have WAY too much stuff in that bag!!!

Here is a Mama Kat secret.

I still tote the diaper and wipes scenario.

I have a large bag.

I call it a BAG because it is

 too large to be called a PURSE.

I like to carry a small clutch inside my bag.

I bring out the clutch for lunch with friends,

personal appointments, movies,

Dinner with the hubby,etc.

I take my large bag to work

and pull out my cute clutch

when I run out to

do an errand or grab lunch.

It's OK ditch that bag every once in awhile.

It's TOTALLY liberating!!!

Try a HOBO.

A girlfriend turned me onto this brand.

They are totally chic and modern

with lots of organizational features for the OCD mom.





Now save yourself from Scoliosis

and get a clutch inside that

big ol' bag of yours.

Now go wash that mom stink off you!!!
