Tonight I went in the bathroom and the sign now read:

Mom is mad
Her face is red
She made this sign
because we make her sad

So put some stupid
toilet paper
in the bathroom when
your done **don't make fun of the non rhyming part or I'll hit you**

But guess what - there was toilet paper in there tonight! (last part leads me to believe my 12 year old did it)...Oh well....win some lose some - and some you call a draw!

Oh! I think the message is getting across! :P

You are not, nor will you ever be the only one who feels like a failure over this, which is why anyone who happens to be on the throne in any bathroom in our home is able to reach more TP!

I have boys and no matter how many times I told them. It just didn't change. I have become so paranoid that before I sit on ANY toilet, ANYWHERE, I make sure there is TP. I also carry kleenix in my pockets for reststops if on a trip. My husband laughs because everytime I go to the store, I buy the largest amt of my brand. I can't run out of toilet paper or tissues.

How about this? To summarize MY life, I have a note, written to me by my husband,
"Phyl, We are out of toilet paper in the upstairs bathroom."
Think about it. Sigh............(and I am still married to the man. Who's the dummy?)

hide a roll in the cabinet for yourself and don't worry about them!! they will find a roll when they need it.

I used to have the same problem ... now my kids are grown and they have to deal with their husband and kids on the same issue. Karma?
