My stuggle with suitcases continues. I'm packing to spend about a week in Las Vegas for DLV and thought I had the packing thing figured out. I looked at my schedule and the weather and picked out my first choices for every day. Then I picked out some options that could be mixed and matched if there are changes to the schedule, weather or my attitude. I was done with a couple of days to spare. I was so pleased that I wouldn't be running in and out of the closet at the last minute throwing things in my bags and getting to my hotel room only to sit on the bed sobbing because there was nothing appropriate to wear.
Cool bit of planning. But for the last two days I've been looking at those closed suitcases and saying to myself, "Self, if you take this extra top or that skort and maybe one more dress, and oh this pair of shoes is so much better than the ones already at the bottom of the bag, and . . . " and on it goes.
Now I'm looking at one more large suitcase to carry along and a guarantee that I'll be sitting on the bed sobbing because I've got more than I would wear in a month and I can't decide between this black skirt and that one.
Who has been able to come up with a technique to pack reasonably and stick with it? What can I leave home? Go with the plan or stick with my heart?
