Guess I am the only woman around here who just buys a cheap functional purse that will hold all of the kids' stuff. And I have (oh the horror) a fanny pack for when I walk the dog (or more accurately the dog drags me around town).:embarrassed: Of course when you are staring down the barrel of multiple kids and paying for college, every purchase for yourself gets translated into, hey that would buy at least one overly priced engineering textbook.:smile:
