When do you start packing?

I am going to show this post to my boyfriend. he thinks I am nuts so I am glad to know I'm not the only one. I don't leave for another 2 months, but most of my stuff is laying out on my dining table (I don't use it much) just waiting to go in the suitcase. The toiletry kit is always packed and ready to go. I started fine-tuning my packing list in February.

I went on the Wonder in Jan and had WAY too much stuff. I never unpacked my bag (except dirty cloths) and when my April trip to WDW came around I just took the same suitcase again and still have clean stuff left over in the thing. I guess I'm an overpacker!!!!

I know I would prefer to over pack than underpack.

I'll begin packing 12 weeks before our Nov cruise! Our last of 5 summer mini-vacas is Labor Day weekend. When we return I'll begin packing for our cruise and doing some heavy duty trip planning.

Underpacking's not that bad. They have self-service laundry onboard.

Yeh, but I HATE doing laundry at home, so I don't see me doing it on the ship. Unless I get some pixy dust on me and have the urge to do laundry!

Well, good Lord, if pixie dust did that I'd have a gallon in my laundry room!! LOL How about bathroom cleaner pixie dust?

We cruised last December and are going again this December and when I put the summer clothes away - they went away in the suitcases. When it was time to really pack, much of it was done - all I needed to do was sort for each person and repack.

The "official" packing commences one week before we leave. Suticases are brought up from the basement and spread on the living room floor. I start ironing all the clothes for the trip and being throwing stuff in the suitcases as I think of them, so I won't forget. By the time we are ready to go, everything is done! No last minute packing stress for me.
