I Am Packing Challenged

I Am Packing Challenged. Why is it that I always under or over pack. Why can't I find that happy medium that allows me to pack the perfect amount of clothes.

It doesn't matter whether I am going away for a weekend or a month. It is always the same, too much or too little.

Arghh!!!!!!!!!!

It's May. Do the "onion" technique: dress in layers. Bring several light items that you can superimpose and add or remove according to the temperature.

MW,
The "onion" technique sounds good. Right now I am using the "dip." As in you dip your hand in the bag and see what you can grab a hold of. It is always an adventure.

Jack, you're sounding like a girl!

Damn,it. I knew that someone was listening to me sing. ;)

Not Quite Abandoned

I didn't think it had been as many months away from here as it has clearly been. I was certain I had updated this place in December and ...
