[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here….

Thanks so much for the replies. I definitely get stressed packing and it takes forever. I’m getting ready to go to a resort for 3 weeks and I really need to rein it in.

My biggest problems:
I take too many undergarments.  Different style bras and lots of underwear. I went to the beach earlier this summer and took a ridiculous amount of clothing.  I took 2 pair of jeans, 5 pairs of shorts, 8 tops, 5 swimsuits, 3 coverups, and 4 pairs of pajamas.  I also took two pair of shoes, 4 pairs of socks, 2 light sweaters and a sweatshirt.  My biggest problem, is the little stuff.  My tablet, charging cords, extra reading glasses, 3 pairs of sunglasses and anything you can pick up at a pharmacy….just in case.  I really need help.I even pack different types of underwear. My husband died 2 years ago, so it’s just my clothes.  I was an over packer when he was living too.  I so want to learn to be efficient.   Again, thank you all and I look forward to more suggestions.[/quote]

You only need one pair of jeans, one sweater OR sweatshirt, not both, and 2 pajamas. 2 swimsuits, 1 coverup.

I wouldn't skimp on the underwear, actually. They are small to pack and I find it nice to change into a fresh pair in the evening if it's been hot at my location.

Hugs to you, having lost your dh must be hard. I hope you can unwind and enjoy your vacation![/quote]
