Packing and miscellaneous

Posted byJanetPosted inlifeTags:,
Narrowing down my options
Forgot some stuff but that’s ok
Packed my daily makeup, couldn’t find my red lipstick so had to stop by Sephora to get a new one
Didn’t pack many brushes this time
The drive to Chicago wasn’t too bad
I am so mad at myself. I forgot 3 major things, 1) my Marc Jacobs black travel bag that I ironically bought on my honeymoon in Paris 10 years ago! It was going to be it’s anniversary too and has been on every single Europe trip I have ever been on! I am not brand obsessed and just look for what holds the most with my 3 kids and their random items from rocks to chewed candy or gum, but since my other bag was Marc Jacobs it felt only right to get the same brand. I thankfully found a basic affordable one but no zipper inside 😩 I wanted a black bag with lots of zippers but settled for this camel color one because it had a zipper closure but no inside zipper that I really wanted. It’s cute but I know I will be missing my main love while on my trip
My favorite dessert that my mother in law makes Watermelon sherbet
A popsicle delight that my friend took me too in my old neighborhood in Chicago
No trip is complete in Chicago without some Korean BBQ
My favorite drink
United airlines again and always love this walkway
Second thing I forgot was my shoes!! I wanted to wear my black and white checkered vans same as Dan on this trip but I forgot I left them with my friend Camille so sadly couldn’t wear them. I felt bad buying the exact same ones for this trip so Dan suggested the pinks ones and happy I got them because they are super cute

My third thing I forgot was my Tae Bear travel buddy 😩 I’m devastated because I bought him specifically for this trip and even though he will have many adventures with me I don’t have a travel buddy this trip and that upsets me. Maybe I’ll find something cute in Paris to temporarily replace my doll…..

Anyways, I am in air now and looking forward to this trip. Hope to post daily since trying to post at the end overwhelms me.
