Barb here.....I'm starting to stress about what to pack!  The hubby keeps saying...let's pack light! Not going to happen..

I have a 3 step process to packing. First I take out EVERYTHING I want to take and put them in the spare room.  A few days later, I try on some of them and easily eliminate a few. Now I try packing everything that's left and of course even sitting on the suitcase doesn't help close it so, I go to step 1 - my final step and take just what I need and not what I dream of taking with me. I still have nightmares of being the only woman in Italy without knee boots!!

Not many days left (12 days 6 hours I've been told). Better start packing!!
