…or an exercise in emotional packing!


I’ll be checking in on my mother later this month. She has not been in a good place for a couple of weeks due to health issues and waiting for a place in an assisted living building. I’ve been trying to be supportive and keep her in good spirits, but it’s stressful. When I created a travel capsule earlier this week using Finds - this is what I came up with:https://youlookfab.com/finds/c.....tion=10516

Today mom shared several pieces of really good news, and her good mood was contagious. Happier about the upcoming visit I worked on a second travel capsule. This is what I came up with:https://youlookfab.com/finds/c.....tion=10519


Reviewing the capsules was shocking to me! Both comprise 15 items (for 4 days), and some items are the same - but, there are differences - and I can only attribute the difference to the way I felt whilst working on the capsule.

The contrast of these two capsules with what I was working on 18 months ago when happily planning a vacation abroad (that got cancelled) is even more shocking! https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....e-uk-in-may.
