Red, you are so organize, I just make a mental note what I need, lay it out on the spare bed & then pack. If I forget anything, I just do without. I figure it was not that important, I am on a cruise
I am a list maker... without them I am not relaxed.. and that is what it is all about.
If I do it 'freestyle" then you can bet that I will paw through the suitcase a few times before it goes out the door.. and i will wake up in the middle of the night thinking.."did I pack my...?"
So for me, this works.
Einstein waits until almost the last minute, and then he goes into the drawers and closets, pulls stuff out and in 5 min he is packed.. I envy that skill..
I can pack the clothing part pretty well without forgetting things, it's the 'stuff' that I use my lists for, as it goes in it gets crossed off. It used to drive me crazy to lie awake and wonder if I packed something! Inevitably I would then wake up the next morning and not be able to remember what I was worried about. Argh! I love fine-tuning my lists for each cruise too, it's part of the fun for me.
Being Elite with FREE laundry makes this one easy even at 14 nights. :boogie: Now ALL I need to do is make sure ALL My Friends have enough drinks each night so they do NOT remember what I wore 3 night earlier.
It's not the clothes that worry me, but the stuff you can't buy, like that black bra, or the cord for the computer, or tums in the middle of the night. But having a list, which I do.... is a help, but I really like the idea of working it out for each day, the way Red said, as that might help me not OVER PACK so much.
I am getting excited for all of you, and with that great web cam Patty found, we will be able to watch you sail out! :spyglass: Sure will be lonely and boring around here without you for 2 weeks tho! :thumbdown: ConnieCat isn't here to captain our JealouSea cruise either. Enjoy the packing and planning!! BTW, I am like a lot of you; it's not the clothes that I worry over, it's all the "little things" and especially jewelry. I like to be all glittery and sparkly on a cruise! :sunny: and always have to make sure that the necklace goes with the outfit that goes with the earrings that goes with the bracelet that goes with the.... :duh: I am the queen of lists...I have lists of lists! :egyptian:
