Nothing Except the Bathroom Sink
So I got home from work on Wednesday and there was a stillness in the air around 1402 that could only mean something had gone awry... Mom had been there.
There was a new sink in the 2nd Floor Back Bathroom, which happens to be the bathroom that I use. As you can see, it is a stylish pedestal lavatory. Two specific things to note about pedestal lavatories are that (according to http://www.doityourself.com/stry/typesofsinks) they:a) Are more difficult to install than counter top vanities
b) Do not have storage space underneath.
Item B is of particular importance, since the sing that had originally been in this spot was not of the pedestal variety. I didn't know that there was going to be a new sink, so all I can provide of the original bathroom sink is an artists rendition.
Notice the vast counter space. Useful for keeping hand soap, and placing the things you are actively using. In the year I have lived here, none of us had any problems with abuse of the bathroom sink counter space, I don't understand why we had it taken away from us.Another point is that the sink used to take up that entire nook, and had a cabinet underneath where useful items such as Saving supplies, Mouthwash, and extra toilet paper could be kept. Indeed, we DID keep such items in that cabinet! So imagine my surprise when I saw our brand new sink with its brand new pedestal and all that brand new space underneath ... and none of my bathroom amenities.
Where could they be? Or there they are! In a box next to the shower.I took my things out of that box and put them back where they used to be. On the floor to the left of the new sink. It was a little odd, with not cabinet doors to close, they were just out in the open. But whatever, I'm sure the other 2 people that I share the bathroom with will understand. Besides, they'll have to do the same thing with all their stuff too!
The next day I went on vacation for the weekend. Knowing full well, that there could be no more surprises in the near future after the New Sink Incident....
When I got back Monday night at midnight all my toiletries had been thrown away. Not just mine. Everything from the box had disappeared. And everything I took out of the box was just as missing.
My razor, extra razor blades, the shaving mug that my grandfather gave me, mouth wash, Q-Tips, tooth brush heads... all gone.
Also, the new sink is leaking.

I had no notice that this work was going to happen. I had no notice that I should remove my things from the bathroom lest they be confiscated. I wonder how she expects us to be using this bathroom? Maybe it is just for show.
