It is HOT outside this week. Another scorcher. Remember this commercial?
Luckily, due to the new blower we got on our AC/Furnace (is it weird that it’s the same unit?) last winter when the heat went out… the AC is much more efficient than last summer. So we don’t need to call Sears. I wonder if that phone number still works…..
The lanes were nowhere to be seen.
Who knew that a person could get rusty at packing? When I was going to school in San Diego and spending many weekends in Temecula (where my parents live) I was a pro at packing a weekend bag–I had it down to a 15-to-30 minute science, in fact. My how things have changed.
Last weekend we went on a quick overnight trip to a friend’s wedding. I haven’t really gone anywhere since last Christmas, so I was a bit rusty on the whole “packing” thing. I got all my makeup but forgot my foundation. I brought my favorite dress but forgot the top is a bit… loose… and forgot to bring a camisole to wear underneath (an embarrassing situation was avoided due to the lucky find of a straight pin.) I forgot my straightener and hairspray. Let’s just say that packing in a rush did not pull me through this time. I mean, the trip went OK and despite my complete lack of preparation, I looked passable.
We’re going on a four-day trip soon and I am starting to pack now. Things will be better this time! I’ll have enough completely put-together outfits for the amount of time we’ll be gone and I’ll remember other things like traveling snacks, a variety of shoes, all my makeup and hair essentials, etc.
What is the one thing you cannot travel without?
