Opal’s Purse: Tide-on-the-go, band-aids, first aid crème, safety pins (various sizes), scissors, repair kit for glasses, cough drops (cherry flavored), lipstick, compact, eyebrow pencil, comb, brush, magnifying glass, tweezers, large pad or paper, two boxes of crayons (four each), one Depends, one baby’s disposable diaper, small baby powder, house keys, car keys, key to motor scooter (senior-type), three pencils, two pens, a check book, ATM card, change purse, one credit card, one debit card, a wallet with mad money and driver’s license, medicare card, bc/bs card, plus a small photo album of grandkids, list of meds, list of doctors, and three lollipops.
I feel like Earl. I usually have 2 sets of keys (one for home, one for work) cell phone, pocket knife, change, etc. And yes, I do wonder why my pants feel so heavy lol
I’ve mislaid my anvil, but I do carry a tape measure, multi-tool, manicure tools, and a bunch of other stuff … in a hip pack. My theory was that a hip pack couldn’t be overloaded too much. Wrong.

The list in the two final panels is considered “normal” stuff? (Good sarcasm on the anvil, Opal.)

I just cleaned out my purse and it now only has 1 wallet, my sun glasses, my keys and my phone.

The anvil’s on the next flight up, sitting on a trap door situated RIGHT ABOVE EARL’S HEAD…!

Earl is that a horseshoe in your pocket or are you just happy to see Opal.

That’s why I wear bib overalls, more pockets for equal distribution of treasures.

Someone should tell Earl that they sell miniature horseshoes for good luck, or he could carry a rabbit’s foot.

Every time I empty my purse, with the idea of putting back only the things I can’t do without, I wind up putting it all back in!
