You Got The Socks?

My hair is done, my nails are filed and painted a lovely pale pink, and I tanned for the last time today.

Nov 9 003

I have done 3 loads of laundry (2 more to go), cleaned two of the three bathrooms in the house, and made a list. A list of what, you might ask? A list of all the things I need to do before noon on Monday. I tend to get pretty nervous packing. I worry about forgetting things.

There was one time we went to Munich and I forgot to pack socks for Hubby. I was shocked to find out that socks in Germany cost $10.00 a pair! After that, I never forgot to pack socks again!

As we get older there are more things to pack, pills, make-up, sunscreen, insect repellent and tons of moisturizer. Remember the days when all one needed was a backpack with extra underwear and t-shirts and you just sort of lived in your jeans? Ha! Those days sure are gone!

So the next 24 hours will be spent counting out the items to go in our 4 large bags!

Don’t worry. I have already packed the socks!

  1. Wow! You really look gorgeous! That is such a lovely photo of you! You’re a real beauty with heartbreaking eyes. Looking so fresh and excited. I’m getting real envious now 😉

    Oh, the packing, always the same trouble…. *giggles*

    Have a wonderful trip and come back and tell us ALL about it!

  2. It sounds like you went to Hugo Boss to get those socks in Germany 🙂
    I also nostalgically remember those days I only needed a toothbrush and I was ready to go! Meanwhile I have a list of “must take along” and it gets longer every year…
    You.look.terrific!!

  3. Ha. Now the el’ cheapo Munich socks are 12 Euro a pair.

    But if you ever need emergency socks in Munich again, go to the underground Woolworth at Stachus (Karl’s Tor). Save you a Maß worth of change 🙂
