4 for me! I take all the gear I have assembled for the trip, and move it around in different configurations into our suitcases. I also attempt to sleep (harder as the days grow less), have strange dreams, and try to eat all perishable food... Then toss out rest! Work happens, too. I am not, however, someone that manages to clean house before we leave. (I am using 4 soccer games, 1 hockey practice, and a holiday craft party all on our pre-departure day as an excuse for leaving it messy.)
