Oh my goodness, I thought I was alone with this horror. I’m a paranoid Patsy and constantly tell my daughter to be mindful of placing a bag Willy nilly on toilet floors and wash areas. She says I overreact much and will even give me her things to keep in my bag to avoid hearing me remind her. One can’t be too careful. We don’t know what is on that floor…..
