I forgot my embroidery scissors in my bag once. My daughter was mortified - How could I do such a thing?!?!! I have never seen anybody that embarrassed over such a little thing. I have lost more embroidery scissors to the TSA then I care to count. They live in my handbag and I always forget about them.

I suppose we have to gnaw through the yarn when we fly

I use a carry on size roller bag that I place my CPAP (and when I had it) large laptop to travel. Then I had a smaller bag for under the airplane seat with my netbook, tablet, phone. If you get the right shoulder bag you can rest it on top of your roller bag and have nothing on your shoulders. I put all essentials from my purse in my roller bag and check my actual purse (with no valuables) in my checked bag.



The very first time I traveled with my CPAP they asked me to take it out of my bag before scanning it through the machine and I've done so ever since. I'll have to try to just keep it in the bag. (It might help if I take the CPAP bag from the larger bag and do it that way).

I always feel bag for the people behind me as I'm taking out and having to place in separate bins my laptop, netbook, and CPAP machine. But I do it super quick and I don't think the people behind me mind that much.
