I'm with you! I pulled the suitcase from the closet this evening and it smells too gross to use, so I'm having to divide into duffel bags.
I think it's time for a bourbon break.

Anyone out there with me??? SO there with you sista. Can't decide on outfits, all the summer stuff is wrinkled, can't seem to cut out any of the shoes and I am just knowing my bag is going to be overweight. I had to stop too. I should have had wine, I had a cupcake!

Not only wrinkled, but did you notice how being in storage all winter makes your stuff shrink? What's with that? What kind of cupcakes?

The delicious kind (that help make the closets shrink the clothes). I'd say I'm halfway packed but still have to gather up all the non clothes items. Spray fan, coozies, flag, and all the bungees for securing it, martini shaker for Cosmo's in the room, blanket etc. And I am swearing NO cupcakes tonight! I hope the HI has irons in the rooms - anybody there now?

Most rooms do these days but reallly. seriously want to iron while the city awaits? And just think... no cupcakes tonight can mean a dozen bengiets tomorrows!

At least six - maybe seven.... You beat me.I have 4 pairs of sandals, running shoes and I was thinking of throwing in this pair of cute rubber boots that are perfect for fest mud (in case things haven't dried up from last week).They're these funky polka dot boots that I use for the camping fests. But then again there's that damn 50 pound weight limit....I'm probably already over it! tomorrow at this time I'll be on the way......

I'm at 46 pounds and that's without the "small" bag for hair dryer and other bathroom type stuff which didn't make it to the big bag.
And my shoe count doesn't include running shoes (or any type of athletic gear) - I will be getting all of my exercise "shakin' it" during Fest and at night shows!!
