We used to reinvent the wheel
EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. we went on a trip.
I'd fret and fret over trying to remember to pack everything,
then we would almost always forgot something anyway!
Argh!
I started saving all my little scraps and notes with lists
and eventually we built one MASTER LIST
that makes packing awesomely smooth.
We never forget anything anymore!
Friends, this list is based on years and years of packing experience.
I have separate categories on my list,
because various adventures call for different types of packing.
AND TO MAKE IT EVEN EASIER...
I have the original list saved on my computer,
but since I rarely even use my computer,
I've figured out how to access it from my iPhone.
First: Download and set-up the free app DROPBOX
to your computer and your iPhone.
Save it onto your computer desktop.
This is amazing for accessing documents that you refer to regularly!
Second: Drag and drop documents from your computer into your DROPBOX,
ie your master packing list.
Anything you drop into your computer DROPBOX
will automatically appear onto your iPhone DROPBOX.
It's so slick and easy! I love that kind of magic!!
My husband says I tend to overpack.
He's probably right.
So now, would you like to have THEE LIST?
