I might be, just slightly, a little obsessive compulsive when it comes to packing. I am not one of those throw some clothes in suit case type, but I am also not the type to bring everything but the kitchen sink either. I actually try everything on that I want to bring and then do little scribble drawings of what makes the cut.

I am just visual like that. I have always done this for every trip as long as I can remember. Some sketches are more elaborate than others, but I was in a hurry this time.
Packing for the two kids adds a whole new dimension to my routine. Here are the top ten thoughts that ran through my head when I packed for this vacation.
1. How can the kids have so many socks that do not have a match?
2. Will butt paste get through TSA?
3. What was the high supposed to be on Thursday?
4. I can get away with only two pairs of shoes. I think.
5. Looks like I need to do some laundry.
6. What is buzz lightyear doing in the underwear drawer?
7. I had no idea this shirt was stained!
8. Man, I really need to do laundry.
9. I don’t know if this suitcase is going to zip.
10. Okay, time to do laundry.
Tomorrow I am participating in “What I Wore Wednesday” showing what those drawings looked like when I wore them. Now go check out Oh Amanda for more Top Ten Tuesday.
