i was in a cleaning mood

doesnt happen very often. but when it does, i HAVE to clean something. anything. a table, kitchen counter, cupboard, floor, anything. today, i happened to be in the bathroom, about to have a shower, when the cleaning mood struck, so i cleared out the cupboard under the sink in the bathroom.

WOW. seriously. W-O-W, WOW.

i could not BELIEVE the amount of stuff i cleared out. almost all of it was shampoo and conditioner. a couple bottles of face wash, an exfoliating scrub, one bottle of toner, but the rest of it was shampoo and conditioner. there was so much of it all that i had to get a second box. and i didnt even touch the other shelf where the feminine products and bathroom cleaners are kept.

this is what happens when you have 4 adults in a one-bathroom house, and they each use different hair-care stuff. or to be more precise, this is what happens when people are allowed to buy new hair care stuff whenever they want, instead of using up what they already have first. admittedly, i now have 4 different shampoos, and 3 conditioners, but i actually use them ALL. if i use any one product for too long, no matter what it is, my hair complains. so i use them all, in an odd sort of rotation.

some of the stuff in those boxes ive never seen before, and we've been back here for over 3 years now. its just crazy.

and now i dont know what to so with it all. theres a chance my mother or sister will want some of the items, so i cant just throw it away, but mum wont be back for at least 2 or 3 weeks, and my sister... well. the chances of her actually taking anything, even if she wants it, are less than a million to one. the study is still full of the stuff we cleared out of her room that shes been promising to clear out for the past 3 months plus.

so now i have two boxes full of hair stuff that are going to sit around for weeks. fun fun fun.
