Things Only Moms Google

Once upon a time, my Google searches were targeted and informative; used when I really couldn’t figure something out, like “when to use VLOOKUP vs INDEXMATCH in Excel”.

Now? Google acts as my primary brain. Usually because typing out a question takes less time than accessing my actual less-than-stellar-performing brain (insert sleep-deprivation joke). And nobody prepared me for how much of that brainpower would be used to contemplate poop.
