Today, I finally got around to cleaning out my mother's things after her passing. In the process I found a fancy box. What did it contain? A collection of crack pipes. FML

Today, my mom found a box full of stuff she had been looking for. She started going through it and found baby pictures of my sister and me, as well as pictures of the cats. She put my baby pictures back in the box and closed the lid. The cat pictures are now hanging in her living room. FML
Today, my mom found a pack of cigarettes in my pocket. She hates smoking, so she tore every single cigarette to pieces, then emptied a bag of kitty litter on them. On my bed. FML
Today, my mother sent off a handmade Christmas wreath I made for my 70-year-old grandmother. It wasn't until after it was sent that we realized the box it was packed in was originally for adult diapers. FML
Today, I found my mom throwing my very expensive and important medication down the toilet. She thought I was doing drugs. FML
Today, I received the 'special' present my mother had sent me for my 21st birthday. I opened the box and saw that my mother had picked out, accessorized and shipped to me, in college, a doll. FML
Today, I was at work when my mother called. She gave me great news that she had finally cleaned out my room and all those "old and useless" books that I had in there. Those "useless" books that she had just trashed were all antiques and worth about $500 each. There were 27 books in there. FML
Today, I received a package from an unknown address. Inside were doll heads and cigarette butts. FML
Today, I found out where a few of my favorite outfits went. My mother had taken them out of my closet, wrapped them, and given them to my cousin as a gift. FML
Today, my dog found my marijuana pipe and the bag it was in and brought it to my parents. FML
Today, my mom sold my Magic box at a garage sale because I "never use it." Locked inside it was my fake ID, a couple of hundred bucks, and a bag of weed. She can't remember who she sold it to. FML

Here's the real question. Who'd she leave them to?

No, that's the other fancy box. The one sitting beside the box containing the crack pipes. My condolences OP.

maybe they were weed pipes? that is put in a different category by a lot of people, and almost everyone agrees its less harmful and potentially helpful

i get where you're coming from but there is a very obvious difference between the residue crack leaves behind compared to that of weed. the look and smell are very different

Pipes that are used for weed are very different to ones that are used for smoking crack. You know those "miniature silk rose in a little glass tube" thingies they sell at the counter at gas stations and convenience stores, especially in bad neighborhoods? Ditch the rose and you have a crack pipe.

Yeah, you're not the only one who reads Cracked.

probably too late for this, but my logic was that you see the blown glass pipes that a lot of people use for weed, i have no idea how a crack pipe is different and was thinking maybe op had jump to conclusions. and i was saying weed is "different" because people use it for other purposes like for medical reasons.

Perhaps they were just a collection of fancy pipes and she didn't use it? Anyhow, now you can have a pipe dream, although I hear they aren't all that they are cracked up to be.

Addiction does not equate to being a bad parent. OP didn't even know she was a user.
