Fix him ... and tell him if he wants it to come along, then he carries it! :)

Here's the backgrounder on that ..... When we used to go to farm/trade shows, my husband would pick up all sorts of literature, and pass to me to carry. I got tired of being the pack mule, when none of it was stuff I was bringing home. Finally, I decided, hey, why take my purse? So without a purse, I had no where to put it. There were bags handed out to put stuff in (which I refused to carry) so it was all up to him!Interesting, how little there was that came home from then on!!
