• Purse dump. . .

  Apparently I'm late with this, but I can't sleep so I'm going to do it anyway, lol.  

  

  This is my purse.  It took me forever to find one I really, really like that isn't too big since I don't like big purses, but was still able to hold all the diabetes crap I have to carry with me.  Okay, to be honest it doesn't hold all the diabetes crap I'm supposed to carry with me, but I decided not to carry extra pump supplies since I'm not usually away from home for very long anyway, which is why I also have stopped carrying my hardly ever needed asthma inhaler and so far haven't needed EpiPen - probably not the wisest decision, but oh well.

  

  These are the items in the main compartment of my purse.

  Check register, though I don't actually carry my checkbook with me any longer.
  Date planner, so I don't forget where I'm supposed to be.
  Pocket constitution, yes I'm that serious about constitutional law.
  Notebook, must have my lists with me at all times.
  Burt Bee's lip balm.
  Gold Bond hand lotion.

  

  These items are in the 2 front pockets inside my purse.

  Business card/credit card/any other "card" I have holder, lol.
  Earphones and MP3 player, must always have music available.
  16 GB jump drive.
  Cell phone.

  

  These are the items in the larger back inside pocket of my purse.
  Glucose monitor, lancing device and test strips.
  Oral hygiene kit, for food-free teeth and fresh-smelling breath anywhere.
  Pill case, contains ibuprofen and Ativan for headaches and anxiety.
  Battery and a quarter to open battery case on my insulin pump.
  Small screwdriver to tighten eyeglasses.
  Three sugar packets in case I go into insulin shock, though I usually just grab a Mt. Dew or some other sugary drink.

  Yes, I have an incredibly boring purse.  Easy post for a tired insomniac though, lol.
