So here is a short list of purses/bags I've used over the years that have received compliments. Note that none of them are expensive fancy designer bags and if I bought it new know that I wouldn't have paid over $$ for any of them because I'm just not going to do that for any old bag. The most pricey one I have I got used at a junk store.

"Newspaper print" made from fabric that matches the print on a Blythe doll carrying case

Purse covered with photos of cassette tapes I bought at Claire's

Army surplus ammo bag with assorted military pins on the flap

Probably the Disney satchel, with matching wallet etc, with the Siamese cats from Lady and the Tramp on it that I haven't worn since I took it to Disneyland because someone with alters and genders who likes to glue themselves to things would make a deal out of it when no one else ever has except to ask me where I got it only to have their hearts broken that it's at least 20 some odd years old but I think I might use it again when I feel purple altho I would sell it if the price was right or trade it for something classic Haunted Mansion IDK

So there. I just need to remind myself when I'm already bothering to wear one of my Ghost shirts I might as well use a coffin purse. The thing is not long after I paid a bit much for the one with the skull and roses at Spensers, I do like that you can wear it as a backpack or a purse with how the stripe are, a bigger more Satanic one with Baphomet showed up at the junk store. But neither have an inner pocket that fits my phone. So thank you whomever grew out of their phase, that's a pretty nice coffin bag even if you just about wore out the straps.

My resolve to not buy new Legos was broken. I'm not a Lego collector but I do like to look. Aside form the architect set and some basic sets, one of my BJD making books used Legos to build up the walls for molds, the only ones that didn't come in a junk run were a train, always wanted a Lego train when I was young, and a purple squirrel. I missed the killer whale lighthouse set but yesterday I saw the new little set with the mom and baby killer whale so I had to get it. Now I'll go back to just looking at them and reminding the smothering unit I don't want all the Legos she sees and if I do buy one somewhere it's because it's odds and ends of weird pieces because I have plenty of regular bricks.

You know, one of those situations where don't you dare tell grandma you like something a bit because she'll fill your house with it.

The writing continues. I'm about 1/3 of the way thru the notes, and when this story is finished I think I'll get in to another one with sizable notes. It looks like 2025 will be the year of fleshing out stories no matter how old or young then typing up what's there with consideration of posting it somewhere on the internet so they can hopefully get read by someone.
