The Mothership

As I returned to the mothership today and “The good life” – I am thinking about my walking partner’s comment from yesterday. We used the local mall to gain our exercise as it was a tad chilly outside. As we walked and admired pocketbooks, “Pristina,” told me she had coined a new phrase. “Sub-purse.”

A sub-purse is a little purse inside the “mother purse.” She has quite a few of these gems, tailored to her needs, of course! Work, play, dining, recreation. She moves things around and makes it work. I can’t even keep my one little sub-purse zipped shut, so most times everything is rolling around the depths of my handbag.

I think my new term will be “satellite purse,” because the contents of mine seem to orbit throughout the mothership, on the floor of the car, and in the closet bin where I throw my beautiful bag. Apparently I can only handle one bag at a time.

  1. My purses are always called “ditty” bags, remember? Best wishes to Maryanne, your mom. Love June
    P.S. so glad you liked the tiny dictionary; it jumped from my hand to yours. Love June
