I have a list but I don't have to start it from scratch. I have a list saved in MS Word covering just about any possible contingency, type of weather, etc. I print it out and first I go through it crossing out everything I know I won't need for this trip. Then I'll write next to it a number. For example, if it's a 5 day trip in warm weather, I'll write in 5 next to t-shirts. This makes things easy to I rarely forget anything important. packing and moving tips
