We haven't been home 2 weeks yet (and we were gone 4 days to the beach to see friends--great fun!), but we leave again in less than 3 weeks (Sept. 4), so it's time to start packing. I am doing 2 things at once--starting to pack for the trip and packing more stuff away in my house to make room for the friends who will house-sit while we are away.
Daisy, TWMSD, and her side-kick, Cameron, do not approve of these activities. I tried to appease them with an hour-long car ride this morning (I had a book on CD that I wanted to finish), but they are not amused.
I've packed 2 containers already for use once I'm in the mountains--Wyoming and beyond. They'll stay in back of trunk till we get to Rapid City, SD, and I repack everything--swapping summer for fall clothes. I'm probably packing too much, but I'm allowed, I'm a girl.
One thing I wonder...when I get home after 2 and a half months of wearing the same clothes over and over, will I embrace the much larger wardrobe at home or feel as if I have "too much stuff" and get rid of more? I've already filled a bag for Goodwill with the work I've done today.
The big question is how many and which books to take.....

Haven't you spent about half your life packing or unpacking?
ReplyDeleteUnc--sometimes it seems that way. But now I am packing for a CAR ride -- not a hellacious plane trip. And I have figured out how to make room for you once we get to TX!
