Pantyliners

As does every woman of childbearing age, I have quite the surplus of sanitary supplies. You see, I never want to be in a position of needing something and not having it. I have all my supplies underneath the sink in our guest bathroom. Now this story took place a few weeks ago. I heard Sidney messing around in the guest bathroom. She had been silent for more than 5 minutes, so my mommy-dar went off and I went to check on her.

She was taking the pantyliners, ripping off the paper on the back of them, and adhering them to the soles of her feet. She said "Mom, look at my shoes!" She then proceeded to run around the house for at least 15 minutes with pantyliners stuck to her feet. Let me tell you, those suckers can pick up a lot of dirt! I thought that she was being quite creative. She wanted to go outside with them, but I was afraid my neighbors would be out, and she would go running up to THEM, and say "Look at my shoes!!"

Now that got me thinking. You know how when you get a pedicure, they give you these little worthless flip flops to wear until your nail polish dries? Then you throw them away, and they fill up in some landfill somewhere. Well my great thought is, what if you made something LIKE a pantyliner, but in women's size shoes to stick on your feet, until your nail polish dries? They would be biodegradable and cheap. If only American Inventor were coming to Dallas!!

My other great invention would be to invent some sort of Kleenex sleeve to wrap around toddler's sleeves, so that, at the end of the day, the Kleenex sleeve would be caked with snot, instead of the sleeve of their shirt. Toddler's sleeves are actually the most disgusting things at the end of the day, and you can almost practically stand the shirt up, using the sleeves.
