A Mini Summer Packing List for Summer’s Last Hurrah

August 5, 2021Sara 2 Comments

Weekend Trip Packing List

A photo of a downtown area at the top and underneath is white background with a list of mini summer packing list.

It feels weird saying “summer’s last hurrah” since it feels like summer only just began, but my birthday is Friday and as I have always said, when my birthday hits, summer is pretty much done.

Everything after that point feels like it goes by in superspeed. That was always my experience when I was younger and it feels even more so now.

That being said I have seen a few people that I know posting photos of their children’s first days of school already. So I know that summer has already ended for many.

I am wearing a black silk blouse, Agolde jeans, black Zara slides, a vintage snake necklace, and a vintage Miu Miu bag.

I am wearing a blue t-shirt, Agolde jeans, yellow block hhels, a link necklace, and a vintage magazine clutch.

I am wearing a jumpsuit, oversized white blouse, black slides, a belt bag, and Le Spec sunglasses.

I am wearing an Anine Bing sweatshirt, faux leather trousers, a Jenny Bird necklace, green flats, and a grey Zara bag.

It is a long weekend here, which is always nice albeit disorienting when it comes to what day it is. Nothing special, just a Civic Holiday that always falls on the first Monday in August. It is also my birthday week.

My birthday is on Friday, I’ll be 42. I had to stop and think about that for a bit because I thought it was 43 for a few minutes. Time is a blur.

I was up really late last night, like 4:30-ish because Merle would not go to sleep. I’m surprised she wasn’t exhausted because I took her for a walk yesterday that was 8kms and I thought for sure she would be knocked out at a decent time.

A white background with a collection of finds from the past week.

It is one week until my birthday and I am not totally sure how I feel about it. The last year doesn’t even feel like a year. It’s crazy how much time has gone by and yet I can’t really remember all of it. It all blurs together.

What do I want for my birthday? I have no idea.

Tom asked me to send him like 10 things that I have on my wishlist so he can pick something from there. I sent him 4 things I think. I don’t really have 10 things on a wishlist at the moment.

An Early Fall Packing List

Early Autumn Packing List

A white background with a layout of what to pack for 14 days in early fall.

It definitely didn’t feel like early fall today when I was walking in the sweltering heat carrying a case of Bubly lime carbonated water, but fall is going to be rolling in soon.

And before we hit full-blown fall we get that transitional period that is one of my favourite times of the year both temperature-wise and to dress for.

I have really messed up my sleeping patterns over the last 1+, but they have been exceptionally bad over the last 3 months. Like still up at 4 am kind of messed up schedule.

And while most days feel like I am trying to mentally swim through mud, it actually worked out in my favour last night.

I will classify today as the headache day since I woke up with one, and I am going to bed with it too. Headaches really kick the shit out of you.

I suffer from migraines on occasion but there was a time several years ago that I was getting 1-2 a week on average where they incapacitated me to the point of vomiting for hours.

I’m thankful that the time period has seemed to pass, but I am finding that the amount of regular headaches is increasing for me. I assume it is a product of the last 18 months.
