Have you ever actually looked inside your mom's purse?  Those things are full of mystery and wonder.  They can hold the world's treasures and a whole lot of crap.

REMEMBER MY MOM'S PURSE

Growing up it was a joke in our family that my mom's purse held all the world's secrets and pretty much anything else.  For starters, it weighed a thousand pounds, and don't you dare ever try to get in it without her permission.  She was very particular about her purse.  She always told me a woman's purse is a very personal and private space.  All I knew was her's was like a survival kit for life and you never knew what you would find at the bottom of it.

Momma's didn't have one of those tiny little crossbody or clutch purses either.  Her purse measured more like one of those weekender bags.  If she ever asked us to get it out of the car we played rock, paper, scissors to see who had to take the challenge.

When mom was older she actually had to go through physical therapy for her shoulder because of how much of a strain her purse had put on it over the years.

Now I digress, back to what I was initially talking about.  Women always keep the most random stuff in their purses.  I have been known to carry snack bags, whole jars of peanut butter, water bottles, and whatever I might need for my children or myself to get through the day.

I swear this is my momma made over!

SOME OF THE GROSSEST/WEIRDEST THINGS WOMEN FIND IN THEIR PURSES

Even though my momma carried around a big ole' purse my whole life I have not ever really been the type that takes a purse in a store.  I do keep one in my car and sometimes I will run home and throw lunch in my purse so I can come back to work and eat to save time.  Well, last week I did just that.  I ran home made a wrap for lunch (I was super excited about it by the way) and rushed back out the door so I could get to a meeting.  I threw the sandwich in my bag and off I went.  Unfortunately, the day got busy and I didn't get time to eat my lunch in fact, so busy I forgot about it totally until five days later!  Just typing that makes me want to throw up.  So this got me thinking "I wonder what the grossest thing anyone has ever left in a purse/bag is?

Thankfully, I have found out I'm not alone.  My friend Kourtney Keown says she found a hermit crab in her purse that her daughter swore was just a shell.  NOPE!

Stacey Tindall says she found a baseball cup in her purse and not the kind you drink out of either LOL.  This apparently isn't rare as Andrea Wedding shared she also found a baseball cup in the bottom of her purse.

And last but certainly not least Serenity Brantley may win the prize with a dirty diaper!

One grandmother A.K.A. Gigi claims she found underwear in her purse.  I mean if you end up needing a pair I guess that's a good place to have some.
