Oh my gosh, lol. Your story reminded me of cleaning my Dad's house after he died. His bedside table hid an interesting assortment of condoms, lol. Now, Dad was almost 80 when he died so the discovery was a double ICK, especially since Mom had been gone for quite a few years.

Later, as we went through a box of old photos, we stumbled across a professionally done nude portrait of one of the ladies in his retirement community. My brother discovered it and you can imagine his reaction. All three of Dad's children were there as well as his grandchildren and all wanted to know what was up. Big Bro showed the adults the picture which created an eruption of surprised and embarrassed laughs. Of course, the grandkids wanted to know what was so funny.

We returned the photos, along with an assortment of other personal items of hers that we found along the way, to the lady. She wanted to open the box while my brother and I were there but we quickly found excuses to hurry off, lol.

Moral to the story: think about your kids cleaning out your house after you are gone and don't keep anything around you don't want them to find, lol.
