That's right. I love to make lists but I rarely use them. I used to be better about them, because the only thing better than making a list.. is actually crossing things off the list... ahhhhhh the sense of satisfaction that gives me. But as far as packing lists go... I can honestly say that I can't recall ever actually using a packing list to actually pack.
So, of course... I took a 2 second break at work yesterday and pounded out this list...
Normally, I would have re-written this and attempted to write it neater.
I hate my handwriting and constantly re-write lists to attempt to make them neater.
So, normally this list would get thrown into my purse and then never resurrected again until 2 weeks later when I'm cleaning out my purse.. But... not this time...
As much as I love a neatly handwritten list... I obviously don't give a
shit about packing neatly. Welcome to my life.
That's right! I actually used the list and marked everything off the list! Hooray!!!
All zipped up and ready to go!
So, I'm heading down to Chattanooga this afternoon for a trail race tomorrow morning! I'm super psyched about it (except, not so much about the forecasted thunderstorms). And at least I know I've got all my running gear packed and my hairbrush (for whatever I reason... I forget my hairbrush on 75% of the trips I take. It's a problem).
Have a great weekend! Full race report next weekend! (That's the first time I've said that in wayyyyy too long!).

I too am a HUGE list maker. Since I travel every week and am often only home for a few hours at a stretch, I often make pack lists on the plane - makes my packing that much faster, and then I can do other things with my precious hours at home.
Hope the race went well!
Good luck on the trail race (it may be over now)! I'm not much of a list maker, which is why I tend to forget stuff. But, if I had handwriting as pretty as yours, I might make lists as well.
