Items on nightstand turn into another item

Something peculiar has been happening in my game lately. Items on my sims nightstand have mysteriously been turned into something else. The original items that should have been on the table ended up in the household inventory. 

Twice this has happened that I am aware of, the second instance has occurred just this morning and both nightstands were affected.

The first time I noticed this was after the update before the one we just had and I was wondering had anyone else encounter this in their games?

    What kind of nightstand are you using ? Does that matter ? Any mods/cc in your game ?

    I don't have any mods or cc. 

    I haven't used any other nightstand yet in this game, so I am not sure if it's tied to any one side table/nightstand. But the one that I have been using is the round mirrored table from the paranormal pack. I'll have to double check when I next open the game to make sure.

    This is a random and puzzling thing I was curious about and thought I'd see if anyone else has noticed it. So far it seems to be something that I notice after maybe two weeks have passed between the first  and second time I have made the discovery of the mysteriously changing items.

    @Wholesome_Goth There's plenty of reports for stuff going to HH Inventory when it shouldn't but I haven't seen any reports for stuff changing.

    Finally added a couple more tables in another room and will experiment with items placed on them. One table has one of the items that kept getting randomly replaced with another item, the other has a different item. Will have to wait and see if it occurs again. 🤔

    I guess the word I should have been using is Replaced instead of Turned. Anyway, I just wanted to post the Screen Capture I grabbed of the second time I finally notice the replaced items.

    It's still such a weird and random thing...My attempt at an experiment to see if it matters what side table is used, should it happen again, may not bear immediate fruit. Not sure if it was as long as 2 weeks between that first time and the second or if it was just that I hadn't noticed it until then.

    I'm still wondering if anyone else has noticed this occurring in their games or if I am the only one. If I am, why is it happening?
