The mighty toothbrush

It’s small things in a household that make you happy. I’m thinking of toothbrushes. Such a mundane item can unmake a marriage, depending on  how much tolerance a husband or wife has when both unintentionally use the same toothbrush.

For years hubby and I have been mistaking toothbrushes. How many millions of miniscule germs we’ve given each other can blow the mind. But I’m happy to say we’ve found a solution. Since baby couturiers decreed from time immemorial that females should wear pink and males blue, that’s  it! After 50 years of marriage, I now buy a blue toothbrush for my male partner and a pink one for me. Our daily lives have become the happier for it.
