I'd love to hear about your quirky habits.

One of mine is that when I'm out in nature I tend to collect cool looking rocks, sticks, cones etc. My window sills have become a geology exhibit (and I have zero clue about what I'm collecting, I just go by "ooh shiny") and more often than not I'll have small rocks in my pockets, bags, backpacks etc etc

Do men not usually do this? Where were you leaving your medication before? Did you never bring a water bottle with you?

I'm a woman and one of my biggest stressors is my bag, it hurts my back to carry and I still forget tons of stuff that I need. I don't have a car so I don't have anywhere convenient to leave things when I'm out or at work.

I usually only carried my water bottle. I'd plan most medication to be taken at the end or beginning of the day. My wife recently converted to a Michael Kors backpack purse after years of having an over the shoulder bag and loves it. She says her back is much better with a balanced load instead of just one side.
