I'm trying so hard to do the right thing (i.e. pack early). So hard! Here I am a week out from the trip and I'm already buying travel-sized toiletry items - and spending ridiculous amounts of money doing so may I add! I'm encasing everything in Ziploc bags, and, most importantly, I'm actually packing. I've broken out multiple suitcases, duffel bags, and backpacks from their hiding places and am auditioning them, if you will, to see which is going to be the most amenable to this excursion.
First, the good news: I have three items packed! Yay!
And now for the bad news: This is what three packed items in my suitcase looks like! Augh!
*hyperventilating*
*deep-breath-deep-breath-deep-breath*
As long as I can wear this, my hiking boots, and a sleeping bag
wrapped around me for the entirety of the trip, I am set!
So as I am contemplating packing for three weeks, three countries, two different climates, and two different traveling modes, this is what my husband posts on Facebook:
Mentally pre-staging for the Scotland and England trip:
"I'll be gone two weeks, so that's ... 3 pairs of shorts, a couple of race shirts, socks, underwear and running gear. DONE."
Yeah, Marti's probably gonna kill me when she reads this.
No one will blame me if we don't make it to the 11th anniversary, right? ;)
Love you, sweetie! And don't worry, with a little hard work and dedication, one day you'll be as efficient as me. :)
