Cathy Commiserations by Cathy Guisewite for May 24, 2022

Isn’t it too small, considering all the junk she keeps in her purse??

(five minutes later) AUUGGHH!!!! I can’t lift it!!! (Just before the seams burst)

I see Cathy’s sign of hope a sign of bondage … I stopped carrying a purse 18 years ago and no longer have upper back aches! (I also am not setting myself up to be mugged,)

It’s lovely, Cathy.

My hubby wears a fanny pack about that size – what he carries in in I have no idea. All I carry is my mobile phone, my wallet, a face mask in case I end up someplace crowded and my car keys. If I am going someplace like a concert, I may take a battery backup for my phone, but that’s about it.

I haven’t carried a purse in years. Pockets! Don’t buy any clothes that don’t have pockets. I have a lanyard with a holder for my credit cards and ID that I wear around my neck under my clothes.

I used to carry a huge purse and a tote bag. One day, I realized how silly that was. I thought I needed all that stuff. I didn’t. I decided to dump it all.

Yup…carry a purse less and less and with less and less in it.

Ahh … inspiration has struck Cathy. Wonder how long till this purse is overflowing or totally bursts?

… with the matching shoes.
