The Packing List Confession

I admit it:

I am an overpacker.

I just can't help it, but I swear I need a lot of clothes. Since I am not typically a jeans and t-shirts kind of gal....I pack outfits for any occasion or possible outcome. So since I am currently in packing mode for Rebecca and I to leave for Disney World on Thursday here are some possible situations (in my head) I need to pack for.

Obviously I need comfortable travel clothes....but they must be cute, because if I stop at a convenience store for gas and caffeine at three in the morning while driving through some podunk bayou town on I-10.....I do not want people (who I don't know) to think I look trashy.

I definitely need supercute wandering around Disney clothes with ultra-comfy shoes....because what if Rebecca and I are randomly picked to be in some great Disney Parade....and I look terrible.

I need some great cheer-mom clothes to support Rebecca in just in case her squad gets featured on ESPN and they pan the parents in the crowd.

I can't forget workout clothes just in case there are is a 1/2 hour to spare that I can work out peacefully for a bit without a nagging child whining at me that she is hungry again.

Also, should we find time to partake in pool-side activities...I need my swimsuit with the cute coverup, big floppy hat, and sunglasses.

When we dine in the evenings I do not want to be seen in same park clothes I have meandered all day in, because what if I have a sweaty look.....or odor(gasp) and the waitstaff has to serve us from afar because we do not look like people who should be in their nice establishment.

Forget the need for travel insurance.....I am in need of some me insurance....I fear a breaking point in the near future if I keep coming up with scenarios in my head. Yes I confess....I am a packing mess.
