Top ten things not to forget on a trip

Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

Packing lists are critical, I find. I give one to my clients that includes notes about quirks of place we're visiting.

Like you, I cross off things as they go into the bag.

I also create a separate To Do list each week before I travel with all the things I have to remember to do before I leave. Plus a separate "Don't Forget To" list ...put out garbage, cancel newspaper, turn off water, etc., etc.

Maybe because I'm a pretty loosey-goosey person in my day-to-day life I've found that these kinds of lists really have saved my bacon many, many times.
