« the tale of how elise conquered the funk. | Main | i am going to pack an umbrella. »

so, it is raining in london.

Img_4945 Which is great. Because in this already packed bag, I have 7 dresses, 6 shorts, 2 skirts, 16 shirts, 1 pair of capris and two jeans. Plus 2 pairs of open toe pumps, 1 pair of flips and those backless-look-athletic-but-are-nothing-of-the-sort-shoes.

None of it is waterproof. All of it is meant for 75 degree California weather.

But no. I am not repacking. I rolled all those clothes so tiny that if I even open that bag to let air in, everything will fall apart.

The most I will consent to is tying on another ribbon and attaching an umbrella. Maybe. I am not sure how I feel about the extra weight.

I feel like this trip is becoming more "Take on the Elements" and less "Take on Europe."

But whatever. Stunnas on. Looking forward to it.

My name is Elise Blaha Cripe. I live in San Diego, California with my husband and our two young daughters.

I make stuff like it's my job.

In 2015 I launched GET TO WORK BOOK®, a daily planner + goal-setting journal. In October 2019, my book about getting stuff done, Big Dreams, Daily Joys hit bookstores everywhere. For almost ten years, this blog was where I shared (daily!) general life musings, insight into being a small business owner and the occasional craft project. In 2021, I am sharing again as we prepare to move back home to Northern California and renovate our dream cottage. I have closed comments, but feel free to email me at elise[@]gettoworkbook.com if you have any questions about a post you see here.

If you're new here, I invite you to browse the archives, read my small business story or start with some of my favorite things to write about, DIY home decor & goal-setting. You can also listen to my motivational speech about the power of making bold statements.

Still looking for more content? Listen to my creative podcast, take one of my eCourses or subscribe to my newsletter.

Thank you so much for dropping by.
