Last
night we planned a girls sleepover. SO much excitement for the trip,
we could not help but talk until the early morning about all the
details and anticipations. With All the excitement, we discussed the
packing list. This packing list is probably the most dreaded but
necessary detail. To little socks, and we are walking around Tulsa
with trench foot. To many Hanson cds and we are getting held up at
TSA for suspicious activity. Well, me being the Type A “have to
have every detailed P-touched and Labeled” kind of person, I have
decided to start the process... So here we go!

You may want to look into a car power to ac/dc inverter. It plugs into the power port in the car and converts it to an AC/DC power plug so you can plug anything in to charge it without having to worry about having a special car charger for it. They run about $20 or less. Great if you want to use the laptop or charge a camera battery while on the road.
ReplyDeletethat's a great idea! i think mary has one of those stashed away somewhere... thanks for the suggestion!
