Last night Morgan tells me, "Mommy, we don't have anymore conditioner in this bottle. The next person is going to need some"...Wait did she just do something caring and responsible for the NEXT person??? Clearly she thinks it's going to be me, and she realizes I'm on the edge...
Now there's not much that I can control these days, it's not like I can hop in the family Econoline van and run to corner drugstore for that conditioner...but there ARE certain things under my control....
namely, the shampoo, conditioners and lotions that I have
stolen ridiculously taken from every hotel room I have ever stayed in....I actually tip the hotel cleaning staff in hopes that they leave a fresh stash of precious hotel toiletries - I should probably discuss that with my therapist...do I take them for my guest bathroom?? hell no, we don't have guests! Once in a while I pull one out when we really are out of shampoo and no one was as kind as Morgan and notified me ahead of time...
but today, I took control...of something....
yep, I emptied three hotel conditioners into a 3oz TSA approved travel size bottle...feel free to join me anytime on the CRAZY TRAIN.... but at least my daughter will have conditioner...

One time we stayed at a Four Seasons, my husband's work paid for it, they use L'Occitane tolietries in the bathrooms. I took the stuff EVERY DAY and every day they put more. Best hotel swag ever!
When I was six, I tried to get the last drop of conditioner out of the Sam's jumbo bottle by sticking my finger into the opening. Amazingly, my finger was precisely the same size as the whole. Turns out my finger did collect a bit of conditioner, but it was stuck in the bottle... Big time. My mom unscrewed the bottle top (I guess there was another way of doing it after all) and drove me and my purple finger to St. Jude to have it 'removed' by the maintenance man.
I bet Avery looks even smarter now...

Brian always comes home with buckets of hotel stuff when he is away. At one point he was taking the shower caps! You know the man hasn't had hair since 1999, so why does he do this??
Anyway, I use them for the kids bathrooms also when we are out and no one wants to go out.
I'm right there with you on the train girl...CHOO CHOO!!
Heck, I call that being frugal. I took so much soap from a Disney hotel one time that I did not have to buy any soap for 6 months. ;P
