Packing one more time...

Tonight I am packing to go back to Houston. It is my third trip in two months. This time it is for my dad's memorial service.

We are driving to Texas this time so a road trip by the Saylor clan will be the on call for tomorrow. We are also driving straight through. I have strict orders by my sister on bringing a small bag with just the essentials. Here is what I am taking:

snacks (mostly chocolate)
money (for gas)
vitamins
sunglasses
crossword puzzle books
The New Yorker
a pillow
a sweater
pajamas
extra jeans
two pair of underwear
snowflake socks
lip gloss
hand lotion
two books
my laptop
camera
cell phone
road atlas
my black dress
See you in Houston.
