Part 2: Day –1: The Day Before

Packing. If you look this word up in the Oxford English dictionary I am positive it will say ‘an activity that will cause untold stress and imminent memory loss’. Perhaps the Collins will have a different explanation but I doubt it.

I hate packing! Having just moved I have packed & unpacked like a demon and am sick of it! It creases your clothes, takes up precious fun time at the end of your holiday and rarely can I fit everything in without having my case screaming for mercy.

I got to the dreaded task on Wednesday morning. Seen as Gavin was at work and I wasn’t I graciously offered to do his as well (I may hate packing but walking around with the other half dressed in the same shorts for two weeks is encouragement enough to do his)

Everything stuffed into a pink case and a black case around noon I was off into Selby for my legs waxing (Ouch!) then back home to cross check packing list with actual stuff packed.

Gavin home and hyper around 18.00. Out for tea ‘cos who cooks the day before they go on holiday?

After tea we still needed to get luggage tags from Gavin’s parents and drop keys at Dan’s who would be checking house for us to make sure nothing had fallen down or blown up while we were away.

All that sorted around 23.00 but we were far too excited to sleep, Go to bed around 23.30 after setting four alarm clocks (you can never be too careful) then spend two hours talking about our plans for the next two weeks. Doze off around 01.30…

:flower:

Jodie

NB: Photo pages still not working.
 
Lovely report, thanks. I don't like packing normally but for Orlando I feel nothing but excitement as I get the cases ready, I usually start the month before.
 
:) Jodie it might be worth trying another photo site as I am not sure how long the DIS one will be down. How about Photo bucket or Yahoo?? :)

More please......
 

I do all the packing and organising, DH does the driving (on holiday) - good deal for me, as driving happens more often than the packing!

But I still hate packing!! :teeth:
 
Very nice packing:)

We can never sleep the night before either.

LOL!

What a cool pink suitcase you have :)
 
I must admit I love packing, the rest of the family don't as I like to pack all their good clothes about a month in advance and I drive them all mad :rotfl: cool case by the way :)
