When I was in my 20's , the contents of my medicine cabinet were simple... toothpaste, toothbrush, my favorite Avon cologne, various hair care products, his and hers deoderant, shaving cream, q-tips, his razor and after shave, eye brow tweezers, a small arsenal of CoverGirl makeup products, Midol, a box of tampons and pantiliners, KY jelly (hey, where'd that come from?) and a little pastel purple case with my birth control pills in them.
20 years later we have a bigger medicine cabinet, which is a good thing because the contents of my cabinet have drastically changed over the years. There's the usual toothpaste, toothbrush, my deoderant, his razor and my favorite Elizabeth Arden cologne (I've outgrown Avon). But thats the end of the similarities. There are no hair care products at all! The eyebrow tweezer has been reassigned to plucking white hair from my head. I don't keep my tampons and pads in the medicine cabinet any more because I buy... the ECO-PAK! I haven't needed Birth Control pills ever since I had my husband neutered, I'm taking Estro-Cal instead. There's a bottle of Geritol where the Midol once stood, several expired bottles of GetThinQuik pills with only a couple missing, Preparation H (hey, where'd that come from?) and finally, a tube of Poligrip to keep that smile in place! He no longer wears aftershave or deoderant... I guess he figures he doesn't need to smell nice for me anymore. Thats okay, because since I quit my job I don't wear make-up any more! I guess we've reached that point in our life when appearances no longer rate high on our priority list, we're just happy to get up each morning to a new day... and once we've gotten rid of our dragon-breath we're set to face the new day.

LOL at medicine cabinet! I just throw everything in a drawer.

I had to go look at our medicine cabinet, I wasn't sure just what was in there. Your right the contents change over the years. Hubby has taken over the smaller medicine cabinet, so my stuff is in a different cabinet. I'm glad I looked, I have several bottles of hair care products. Guess I better stop buying it for awhile. LOL
