I have also done lists in the past but then keep stuffing "extras" in the bag at the last minute. It's always eye opening to come back and find out which things I did not wear/use. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164850 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 17:43:52 +0000 E 1164850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wait, there are people who don't make itemised packing lists? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164832 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 17:24:58 +0000 Emily 1164832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way you've broken down your list! &nbsp;I do something similar with a google doc - on one sheet I list my itinerary and what I want to wear for each activity, and on another I break it down into an itemized list. &nbsp;My template already has all my toiletries/electronics filled in. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164820 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 17:17:55 +0000 lyn* 1164820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, good call, I need a toiletries/makeup list! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164796 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 16:53:33 +0000 Susie 1164796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I definitely make packing lists!

I'm not quite that thorough (no color coding) but I definitely do this. And then end up throwing two more outfits in the bag "just in case." </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164761 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 16:15:23 +0000 Kristin L 1164761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smart thinking!

We never ran out of cleanser or toilet paper or anything. When computers became available she really came into her element. She should have been an efficiency expert. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164390 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 04:30:37 +0000 Ornella 1164390@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like to see someone else is also&nbsp;fond of colourful pencils.

This is exactly what I do. Dear Dr. Anthropologie, please tell me it's NOT truly OCD?!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164346 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 03:46:28 +0000 Gigi 1164346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't made any trips since I joined YLF and became much more concerned about how I dressed...I can only imagine what it would be like packing for a trip now! Before, I'd just pack whatever. Now...I recoil in horror just thinking about the mental exertion putting together coherent outfits for each day&nbsp;would require.&nbsp;Good for you for being so organized! And even having alternates...you are one smart cookie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/packing-lists-my-ocpd-ways#post-1164338 Wed, 12 Feb 2014 03:35:08 +0000 lyn* 1164338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a tendency to overpack my bags, so in order to overcome this, I tried to plan for my upcoming trip with specific articles of clothing I am going to wear on particular days. </p> <p>I have also built in alternatives in case I get bored or the weather is yucky. </p> <p>There aren't actually a lot of things I need to bring! I may bring two pairs of jeans, though. </p>
