Five Things

OK, as prompted (tagged) by Gashwin:

Five things in my freezer:
1. Big box with only three frozen pancakes left in it, taking up space.
2. 1 pound of frozen shrimp, caught by relative last year sometime. We've no idea what to do with it.
3. Left-over frozen "Susan Stamberg's Mother-in-Law's Cranberry Relish."
4. 9 trays of ice cubes.
5. Mystery unmarked containers--some we may have moved here...

Five things in my closets:
1. Christmas decorations, most of which I haven't unpacked in two seasons.
2. Cheap gifts I buy and save for Christmas gift exchanges (especially if they say "As Seen on TV!")
3. 16-year-old coat with ripped lining that I keep thinking I'll repair.
4. World's largest collection of black suitcases.
5. 20-year-old Oreck XL vacuum cleaner.

Five things in my car:
1. Repair and maintenance log books with almost every cent I've spent on the car recorded, including mileage at each fill-up.
2. Khaki pants, polo shirt, vest, sock and boots for emergency response.
3. Pink & black Mexican blanket. You never know when you'll get stranded in the winter.
4. Palm cross.
5. Whatever I've forgotten to bring in for the past week/month? (likely 1-3 Diet Coke containers.)

Five interesting things in my backpack purse:
(I don't use a backpack, though my current purse (bought in 1996--really!) looks just like one.)
1. Glucometer & testing supplies.
2. Earrings I put in there the last time we rode, so they wouldn't get caught in the motorcycle helmet.
3. Spoon. You never know when you'll need one.
4. Multiples: 2 rosaries, 2 flashlights, 2 checkbooks, 2 memory sticks, and (this week) two pagers.
5. Medication container with logo of the Clinton Presidential Library, where I bought it.

6--Bonus: $13.36. Might explain how cheap I seem from the earlier sets of 5 things... 8-)

I'd tag Izzy, but Pritcher may have already done so, and I know better than to try...

Warren? You could list five ultra things...
