Yes, I am a grandmother! Actually I have found bags can really help with time management and organization. My collection is growing. Each tote has a different purpose. My pink tote in a previous post is for carrying items associated with my granddaughter when we go out on our outings. The tote pictured above is my receptionist tote. Items I need throughout my work day I keep here and grab on the go in the mornings. A real time saver. Now each time I see a fun tote, I will most definitely consider how I can put it to use! Here are a couple links that I enjoy browsing for tote bags:
I just love my g’ma stroller! The pretty pink was not planned. About a month ago while babysitting, Briella and I planned on going to the zoo. I needed a stroller- not really wanting to spend a whole lot of money. We went to one of my favorite stores- Wal-Mart. Most of the umbrella strollers were of cartoon characters. So not me or grandbaby! After digging and searching I found this pretty hot pink one. We were set to go to zoo and had a fun time too!
Well on a different trip to my favorite store- Wal-Mart, I was looking for a bag to carry overnight clothes and such for short overnight stays. Low and behold I found this pink bag in the clearance section- 7 bucks!
Okay- moving forward, just this weekend Briella and I went to garage sales. The pink bag was in the car and I needed it to carry a diaper, drink and snacks for Briella not to mention a place for my wallet and phone. The bag was uncomfortable for long lengths to carry on the shoulder. I happened to try slipping the rings on the stroller handle. The bag fit like a charm. This now will be my “official” equipment when Briella and I go on our outtings. She sure looks pretty in pink!
Briella and I met my daughter for her lunch break. It was after we ate I was strolling Briella back to the car. During our stroll this elderly couple was walking ahead of us. So many thoughts came rushing to mind as I witnessed this gentleman escorting his companion out to the parking garage: how many years have they been together; how many children do they have; are they okay; I hope my husband & I still hold hands at that age. It dawned on me to grab my camera.
Grabbing the camera, I had to run to catch up with them.
For being elderly they sure had a spring to their walk!
