[quote=Anonymous] I very rarely travel without kids, so maybe that impacts my system, but I do the same thing whether it's myself or a family trip. What week or two before (depending on the length of the trip and whether we are going somewhere that might require extra stuff like the beach), I make up a comprehensive list of everything that needs to get packed. Then I designate a laundry basket or bag somewhere to be stuff for the trip, and as my buy things like snacks or a new travel toothpaste or a swimsuit I will stick it in there. Then, the week of, I will start to pack the clothes as I do laundry. Instead of putting them away in drawers and closet I will just put them in a pile waiting to be packed. Then I do the final packing the day before. I can't imagine packing the morning of, simply because I would have trouble sleeping without the sense of completion of knowing that everything that can be packed is packed. [/quote]
