160 / 365 Trying to Travel Light

We’re taking a weekend trip with our niece and nephew to Washington, D.C.  H and I agree that the worst part of traveling is packing.  I can have in my head exactly what I’m going to take, and as soon as I start loading the suitcase I start second-guessing myself.  To compensate, I over-pack “just in case.” 

So far, I’ve put together seven outfits plus a couple of extra shirts for three days, and I can’t go to bed until I’ve cut that wardrobe in half.
