My purse which is only a few months old needs to be replaced. The straps are about to give. When I told the husband about my predicament while wondering out loud if I put too much weight on it he just laughed at me. Well, he always called most of my purses as luggage anyway. He thinks it is funny that a petite person like me would be carrying a big bag. I told him several times I need space for everything and everything consists of my special effects plus the little man’s and sometimes, his. And he dare make fun of me? To make up for it, he let me shop for bags at the mall today but the ones on display were bigger than what I have. I would never dare use something that huge! Whatever happened to cute bags anymore? Do women really need huge bags? I went home empty handed. Aside from the fact the bags were too big, the prices were too expensive. I am not spending that much money on bags when if I look around I probably will find something that will not break me. I will keep hunting and hopefully will find a cheaper bag I will like which is not too big anymore. It gets pretty heavy to be honest but I am not admitting that to him
