Housekeeping

For years I have been trying to make packing easier on me for these trips...This trip I had 3 bags outside of camera equipment. So here you see bag 1...it's heavy. It holds all the heavy stuff..A box ( upper right) with a small water kettle...under that I have the flower toiletry bag...unders that, the black bag with wires and chargers...top left, blue bag is food related...silverware, cups, coffee, sharp knife, kitchen towel, lemons, ...then 3 boxes with small hard drives. There is also a make up bag, a green jewelry roll. Wires on top...In the zipper compartment is all medical stuff, 2 knee braces, vitamins, meds...I can get my laptop in this...and that is that...what don't I need?

I have mascara issues...as in, it runs, even waterproof...even high end....But I found a solutions after all these years...There is a Dior product that is a prep and treatment/ serum for eyelashes...it's clear....I use it, 

let it dry and then apply the Benefit mascara...and it works!

 I have a little bag that zips that I keep my glasses in and pens and wine opener and my phone and charger plus a norebook to remind me of things. I keep this in the passenger side of the car as a sort of catch all...but I try to get my glasses back into there...

so hard for me to be organized.
