I'm not big on over consumption, but will bow my head in guilt as I admit I do have a Costco membership. The Spaz and I have had one for over 10 years and have never spent more than $200 in one trip ever. I take that back. We have, but we had a $500 gift card, so technically we didn't spend a dime. We buy the usual: paper towels, TP, soy milk, body soap, and baking supplies. I'm a fan of the paper products, and don't wish to purchase them anywhere else. With all these fancy paper products stocked in my home, why do my children insist on bypassing the resources I have provided, and prefer to wipe their boogers on my walls?
I have tissue, toilet paper, and paper towels. There is no shortage of disposable options. I don't understand the need to re-texture my walls with snot. It's gross people. Any mom will tell you that once dried upon the wall, it is almost impossible to remove, and once it is pried loose, it usually takes a chuck of paint with it.
My kids are booger ninjas too! I never catch them in the act. Magicians one and all! Their slight of hand is better than most Vegas illusionists. I'm sure this has been an ongoing issue with moms since the dawn of time, but I'm guessing the cave women didn't mind as much as their modern counterparts.
If my kids have an aversion to paper products, I would prefer them wipe those nasty nuggets on their clothing. They will wash out. It's the lesser of two evils and I will take what I can get. Please for the love of all things holy, stop wiping it on my walls! The only redeeming thing about this journey is the fact that when my children finally have children, they can sit in the hallway, bedroom, bathroom, and any other room in the house with walls, slowly soaking that disgusting junk of their own walls. Karma....tee hee!
