After many botched attempts at always looking at the toilet paper roll before taking care of business, I decided it was high time to do a brief inservice in the house.
Forget the over or under preference. It has been typically NONE or sideways around here.
I gathered the boys in the bathroom with fresh toilet paper roll in hand and had them watch as I showed them WHERE the inventory of toilet paper was stored for each bathroom AND how to take the old roll off and put the new roll on.
I felt SUCH a feeling of accomplishment. I had both boys agree that neither would EVER leave the toilet paper roll empty again. Sigh........ Does life get better than this I ask you?
Well, THIS is what I ran into this morning.
Yes my children are obedient and thorough if nothing else. :)
In their defense, there is still one square on that roll...

Barbara is right... that's exactly what the testosterone-laden of this house would do. One sheet = there's still TP there...

LOL, the things our kids put us through, I remember my daughter going through her "Barbie" phase and insisting we buy only Barbie toilet paper.

after you get this down, will you train them to run the toiletpaper over or under the roll. Next, you'll demand they put the seat down. There was a reason God created bathrooms for men and women... (although I hate it when someone doesn't change the roll too)
