Bag is from my mums stash, probably from the 90s but has no labels.
Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk, only on chapter 2.
Notebook, planner I made, red ballpoint pens and pencil tin for watercolours.
New glasses now my prescription’s gone up.
Lipstick, hair grips and a perfume mini that I don’t want to admit is empty.
My wallet, with coffee shop stamp cards, and a prayer card to St Joseph that’s meant to make you immune to traffic accidents and plane crashes. No flight I’ve read it on has gone down yet, and Lou read it before she did a scratch card and won £5, so maybe we’re Catholic now.
Silky scarf I got on holiday for my hair.
Keys with screaming baby keyring and shiny green bottle opener, plug in headphones & wireless ones.

2 pairs of black sunglasses (1 cat eye and 1 rectangular), 1 pair of seeing glasses, 2 lipsticks (almost identical in colour and also consistency), 3 sachets of cold and flu medicine, 1 bottle of ibuprofen, my purse, 1 inhaler, my moomin water bottle, a very old mask, a phone charging cable, a small pearly coloured claw clip, my headphones, a comb with a spiky end, a sharpie (covered in pomegranate juice), chewing gum, hair bobble, post office receipt, the address of a dj I returned some headphones to, a library info flyer. All squeezed into my favourite bag ever (I like it because it has a C on it and my name starts with a C and I also got it monogrammed with my initials)

The first time I laughed as a baby was watching my mom sing and dance along to this song while making silly faces at me.

This song is tied to so many memories of my dad; I think it may only have been playing so much because it was one of the only songs he had saved on his iTunes, lol. I remember dancing with him, standing on his feet, to this song in the evenings when he got home from work before he could even change out of his suit. I still love it.
