While I used to travel regularly for work years ago, I still get a little anxious packing for any trip, even a quick weekend away. That’s why I’ve decided to leave some things in my suitcase when I get back just so I don’t have to remember them again. These aren’t items that I necessarily need on every trip but ones I’m always glad I have.

Staying organized away from home means you spend more time and energy enjoying the time off and less time anxious and worried about what you might forget.

While moving is nobody’s idea of a good time, there are ways to lessen the stress so you can look forward to your fresh start. It is AMAZING how planning ahead and having an organized strategy to clean out your current home in anticipation of your new one can ease this process tremendously.
