I know I told you that I was going to post more about how I packed for Guam, but here's the deal. I didn't get a definite yes until FRIDAY. So I spent Saturday frantically pulling things out of my closet, ironing, rolling them up and putting them in the suitcase. I am taking one suitcase to Nova Scotia, then Robbie is meeting me in Atlanta with suitcase number 2 to go on to Guam.
I got everything into both suit cases - very proud of myself because I had just a little room left for things to bring home.....until tragedy struck.....I realized that I had not packed ANY shoes yet nor purses!! What was I going to do? Robbie didn't see a problem, after all he only wears one pair for work/church and one pair of athletic shoes. What was I going to do? Since I will be by myself, I couldn't take another suitcase....
Let's face it - the shoes and purse are an integral part of an outfit - something that men have a difficult time understanding. You just CANNOT wear black with blue or brown - you will need one of each color - plus i have a cute pair of red shoes that can give an outfit that extra "pop". Then I need flip flops for the beach. Plus a good pair of walking shoes. I feel like I need another pair of black shoes as well because the first ones I packed have little flowers and having a plain pair of black shoes are a must. Then just some fun sandals for sightseeing.
So, here is what is gong to have to happen this afternoon, I am going to have to sacrifice some shirts for some shoes. I closed up my big suitcase last night and it weighed about 100 pounds. Something is going to have to come out - but I don't know what yet. Worried about how much that one is going to cost when I check in...
Stayed tuned...I have exactly 24 hours to figure this out!
