Lol. These were the exact two items on our quick run to the store from the dorm.

Hangers! And hand towels. We didn’t realize her dorm room had a sink.

A lightbulb for the cute lamp she bought. Hanging hooks and a hammer. Gloves for when it gets colder out. An umbrella.

Pillow and feminine … items (!)

He'd wanted to bring his swiss army knife and forgot that. A want, not a need.

Her childhood blanket. She wanted us to overnight it, but we're going to wait a couple of days and see if she still needs it before sending it.

Mine is at boarding school. She forgot hangers, surge protector, pillow case, uniforms, mouse, keyboard, binders, medication.

She was adamant that she had all packing under control. I’ve given up arguing with her. Care package is going out tomorrow and Amazon has already shipped stuff to her.
