The full and embarrassing truth of my weekend!
So first of all Happy Easter everyone!
So the story starts a week ago. I decided I couldn’t spend a holiday lidless at home. We make sort of last minute plans to do a weekend trip.
Friday morning turned out super busy and I packed for a simple short weekend getaway in 10 minutes.
I knew we would be hiking and it would be warm. As we prepared to visit #calvercliffsstatepark I realized I not only forgot bug repellents but I forgot a sports bra 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️😁.
Luckily there was a #target nearby and I bought this super cute sports bra (on clear so I took whatever size was there- this is important to remember). I realize that I also had grab some random essential oils, one of which was a geranium. I know this is often an ingredient in bug repellent so I applied to my legs. Here is a bright spot… husband found a tick crawling on him and dog had a few… I had none 👏🏻👍 (this is personal experience and not medical advice).
Get back to hotel to shower and I forgot all my normal soaps and shampoo. Thankfully @hiltonhotels now have these zero products! Here’s the most embarrassing part… I had to get help getting out of that cute sports bra 🤣. Remember I bought whatever size was in the clearance 🤦🏼♀️🤷🏼♀️🤣.
Anyway, it was a beautiful weekend with great weather. I didn’t pack enough socks but I did have the right amount of underwear.
So someone please tell me I’m not alone in poor packing or in getting stuck in a sports bra. Is this all menopause? Na! I’m going with it’s a coincidence, but I do know as I’ve gotten older I need to be more intentional, take my time and do one thing at a time (yes I probably have ADD).
If you can relate this you will really love what the future holds! Stay tuned!

Haha! I once got stuck in a sports bra in a dressing room alone. At least you had help! I'm lucky I didn't dislocate something! A poorly packed getaway is better than none!
