My purse needs a diet

I read the other day that your purse shouldn't weight more than 3 lbs. for health reasons so I decided to weigh my purse to see how much I'm actually hauling around every day--4 lbs. Not so bad, but that weight definitely fluctuates immensely. For instance, if we're going out somewhere, Mr has me tote all of his stuff in my purse. We're talking 2 phones, wallet, cigs. Knowing how much my purse weighs with just my stuff now, I think he is trying to sabotage my health or my back.

Apparently I've had an inkling that I've been hauling around too much weight in my purse because I've been on the hunt for a small wristlet to use when I'm shopping. It's so much easier than schlepping around my big bag. I had a gift card to a local store so this week I bought this little cutie:

I figure it's an appropriate sentiment since if I'm carrying it, I'm probably about to do something I shouldn't--shop, drink, or your run of the mill debauchery. It's so great to carry something so small when I'm out and about.

On another note, I got my hair chopped yesterday. Can you believe I haven't gotten my hair cut since the wedding? I've been cutting my own bangs and have just neglected to get the rest cut. Here's the new 'do'.

I got a lot chopped off. Actually, it's a little shorter than I wanted it to be, but I guess it will grow! It looks a lot shorter this morning so hopefully I'll get used to it.
