KIDS THESE DAYS are seriously confusing the hell out of me. I was cleaning out the bathroom cabinet because family is coming over this weekend, and I grabbed this random little bag sitting way in the back. I figured it was old makeup or something my daughter forgot about months ago. I open it and suddenly all these little cotton things start falling out onto the counter and one of them literally rolls across the sink.
So now I’m standing there holding this tiny cotton stick with a string hanging off it thinking… what exactly is this supposed to be? I call my daughter in and hold it up asking why there’s a whole stash of these things hidden in the bathroom like it’s some kind of secret supply. She immediately gets all defensive telling me it’s “normal” and that I’m “being dramatic.”
Normal?? Since when is keeping a whole Ziploc bag full of these little cotton things normal? If you need an entire bag of them tucked away in the cabinet, clearly something is going on that nobody bothered explaining to me.
Now she’s stomping around the house acting like I embarrassed her just for asking a basic question. Meanwhile I’m still standing here holding this weird cotton stick with a string attached to it trying to figure out why my bathroom suddenly looks like a cotton warehouse.
