Recently, our community built a neat new tennis center. The Parks and Rec department charges next to nothing for kids’ tennis lessons. But I think it’s really “tooky” to use tax-payers dollars to build this thing and then require membership dues to play there.

Well, I understood the dues after I went to the bathroom. You wouldn’t believe all the niceties and “girly” stuff that was provided - all in these nice little organizational wicker baskets that I’d love to stuff in my jacket and take home with me because they’re always just too darn expensive for me to justify buying some for myself.

One basket had shampoos and conditioners. Another basket had scented hand lotions, hand sanitizers, and contact lens solution. Then I saw the answer to my prayers - a tampon basket.

I’ve struggled with disorganized tampons since I started having kids and moved from a child-like flow to a have-had-child flow :smile: . So in celebration of this month’s “flow,” I cleaned out one of my bathroom cabinets and put my assortment of tampons in a basket (a basket I happened to find in the attic - I didn’t swipe it, honest!)

When I’m already cranky, this makes finding what I need much easier, especially since there’s probably a child banging on the door saying “Mommy? Mommy?” And it looks so nice and organized. I bet I’ll be better prepared (and less cranky) for next month since I can see what I have and what I need to restock.
