I am usually very organized and make lists for everyone - even me. THere was this one time I didn't, and I got to where I was staying and realized I'd left my under wear at home. And then my husband brought it to me.

And then this other time...same thing only I realized it on the way to the airport, so we stopped off and bought some and we missed our flight.

So I'm back to list-making, and everyone asks me if I've remembered my own underwear EVERY time we travel.

It all depends on the day.

Your description is similar to mine...always rushing around till the last moment and never quite done packing till the second before I rush out the door (forgetting something, inevitably).

I spend a lot of time before leaving trying my best to make it like I am not actually leaving (mommy guilt)...but in my case, being a part-time flight attendant, I am leaving at least monthly. But sadly, when I return home, I have all the shopping/cleaning/getting things back on track that I did before I left. It never ends.

If I have an early flight, I often can't sleep. I don't know if it's anxiety or what, but the more desperately I NEED to sleep, in order to, you know, FUNCTION, the more evasive it is. So I'm just tired.

I often wish I could be a coffee drinker! ♥

I need the laundry done and the house clean before I leave. There is nothing I hate more than coming home from vacation to a dirty house. It's bad enough that I have to COME HOME FROM VACATION. I can't face vacation + huge mess to clean.

And if our vacation is spent at a relative's house, I usually try to do some laundry before I leave to go home, so that I can pack clean clothes into the suitcases and unpack them right into their drawers.

(Usually I'm too lazy to do that but it's a goal.)
