"She Gave Me A Pen"

Yesterday I decided to clean out my purse.  I was going to a concert, so the thought of my purse tipping over in one of those stadium seats and spilling out entered my mind...plus they always have to look in your purse for security reasons when you enter....so if you have a cluttered purse you have to wait longer for them to check it..... (I have a tendency to mentally walk through potentially embarrassing life situations)  Maybe I shouldn't do that....it would make life a lot more interesting. :P

Anyway, it had been a while since I cleared it out.  I had a ton of grocery lists and receipts packed in there....and, with a family of seven, I get all those extra print-out coupons.....people actually start laughing when they are in line behind me and I am waiting for the machine to quit printing the coupons because it is a really long and awkward wait and I usually am apologizing to the people that they picked the line with THIS LADY :).....lately I had been shopping and could never feel a pen in the bottom of my purse to check off the items on my list because all I ever felt was paper.  I thought I didn't have any pens left in there.

I dumped my purse out and there were sooooo many pens in the bottom....my girls were making fun of me.  I tried to dismiss that quickly and get on to another topic, but Kenna said, "Oh no, we have to count these....!"  There were 36 pens in the bottom of my purse.  At that point, what can you say?!

So, if you need a pen....
