I’ve turned into the most anal retentive packer when I have the time. When I’m rushed, I shove anything and everything into a bag, but when I have time, it’s different. I make little checkllists of everything I want to bring and all the things I need to do before I go. I go through all the tasks (water plants; suspend NYT delivery; suspend Dodgeball, etc.), and check off the boxes as I complete each one. Then I lay everything out on the bed and mix and match clothes until I’ve whittled down to a reasonable amount (lots of black and white, generally). Finally, I pack just about everything up except for my toiletries and handbag, and set everything just so. That way, when my alarm goes off at the crack of dawn (car’s coming at 6am), I don’t really have to think; just finish it up and go. I’m off to Hawaii — will check in when I return!
