I keep a list of my work passwords, but in a simple cipher so if anyone stumbled across it, they'd have to put a bit of effort into figuring them out if they wanted to use them.
I put my "master packing list" into a spreadsheet. While packing, I mark anything already packed in bold so I know what I still need to track down. It also has a "number of days" field that then auto-populates how many socks, shirts, etc. we'll need.
I like to bring an array of OTC meds on vacation, because someone always either has a cold, or indigeston, or something. If we don’t have the meds with us, we tend to just suffer through rather than seek out a gift shop or something. So what I did was get a 14-day pill case, and fill it with ibuprofen, antacids, cold meds, etc., and typed up a list of dosage amount/frequency for each that we keep taped to the case.
This has been a huge help for us! We have a pegboard for keys by the door, and my wallet, sunglasses, work ID, etc. live in one specific place all together.
That’s what I don’t get about all these no-top-sheet people. How often are they washing their comforters or duvet covers, with it right next to their skin every night? Yuck.
I am terrible with plants, so I do your first out of necessity. Anything that needs special care or overwintering just isn’t going to survive in my house!
I’m right with you on the ironing. When buying clothes for work, I try to get things that will look good so long you hang it up right out of the dryer.
