4 Days.

Need to pack.

I'm the packer, and my stuff is always last.

Where is that pixie dust?



Must......go.....pack.

Nine days and I am not prepared at all.

 

[Tomh]

6 days and I am NO WHERE NEAR READY

I have so much left to do, and so little time left to get it done in.

4 More sleeps for us (since I haven't gone to bed on Sunday yet, even though it is "officially" Monday now -12:03am)!

I am having a bit of "can't get packed - itis" myself. I tried to make some progress tonight, and I guess I did a pretty good job. Got most of those last little things bought (Benadryl, magazines for the plane, gum, breakfast treats since our plane leaves at 8:30am, etc.).

I've been washing clothes and pulling out the clothes I want to take on the trip. I put out the boys shirts tonight and started pairing some up (it is fun to have coordinated outfits on some days).

Somehow I have a block that won't allow me to start actually putting things in a suitcase! I need to get over that tomorrow. Part of it is just knowing that I need to figure out which things go in the big suitcases which won't get opened (hopefully) during our first 2 nights at CSR. Then what goes in the carry-ons so we have access to it ASAP. Decisions, decisions.

Happy Packing to all of you who are going within the next week with us!!!!!

[adaygaby]

4 days...!! WOOHOOOOOOOOOO...!!

 

[kpgriswold]

Checked in online!

Down to single digits!!

Hmmm.. maybe it's time to do some laundry?

 

[tlcslp]

Next week at this time, I'll be sweating but happy!

I'm getting into list mode - what I'll need in the carryons vs. suitcases (esp. since we're on MME), snacks to pack, etc. I don't want to pack too much for 5 days, but it will be hot and we'll need multi-changes per day I'm sure.

It's my first time flying with my son (5), so I have NO idea how much/little to pack for him to do. I'll overpack, as usual.

In the meantime...

Less than a week for us too, we are flying into Tampa for a few days first to visit my cousins.
Packed yesterday and then this morning, looked it over ,rearranged some things and then closed the suitcases !!! I'm done !

Just a tip for your 5 yr.old, something I learned here on the Disboards...pack an outfit for the kids in Gallon Ziplock Bags. A matching set with undies./socks.

Believe me it works so well ,you just have to pull out a baggie and your outfit for the day is all set! I still have dd14 do that . I had her pack 6 baggies of outfits and they fit so nicely in our carryons !
We do laundry at least once @ WDW ,too ...so I try not to pack too much !

We have 2 weeks too!!!!

[Madisonsmom45]

We are at POR from August 26 -Sept 5

 

[woohoo02]

9 more days!!!! DS got excited today and told the daycare teachers "We're in single digits now!" LOL

We haven't packed a thing, and still need to do some shopping - food and misc. stuff -- before we leave on the 18th. We're driving the 18th-19th, so we'll need food and stuff for that part of the trip. Then it's 7 days at All-Star Sports! DH did check-in today! WOOHOO!!!

 

[lorainfam]

we leave in 18 days for AllStar Music for 9 nights. I wish I was more excited for it.....in the next couple weeks, we are moving the in-laws to a new home, we are moving into their house, register the kids for school and try and school clothes shop all in the next two weeks

I hope once we get on the plane we can then relax and have a magical vacation

 

[LMDisneygirl]

Less than 2 1/2 days until we leave now! I go back and forth between feeling like I'm making so much progress in packing, and feeling like there is SO MUCH to do I'll never get it all done. I'd really like to come home to a reasonably straightened up house. I've come home to a disaster area before, and did not enjoy it.

I think I am having anxiety that is bothering my tummy a little. I'm sure it will be fine once we are on the plane and all the prep work and pre-trip decision making is over.

Happy Packing! It will all get done. We will all be fine. We're going to have a blast!!!!!
