I am SO sick of hearing "It's a guy thing!!!" It's all B.S., and if they say it enough it becomes "Truth!" This is an excuse Tim the Toolman Taylor somehow got started back when, to excuse the stupid things men do as well as those things they just don't want to do, and to get wives off the backs of lazy-a** husbands!
The ONLY thing I don't have to worry about is changing the TP roll...I gave him his own bathroom when he moved in my house after we were married! Now if I can figure how to get him to use his own shower...

I solve the running out of TP problem by stocking each bathroom with it's own extra rolls easily reached from the commode.

Warning - long story:
Many moons ago, I taught my brother the true value of at least making sure an extra roll was in the bathroom. He was notorious for using up the paper without replenishing the supply.
One day I make sure to leave just enough paper (1-3 squares) for the next time he used it. I also made sure to take out all the other rolls & put all of them in the linen closet at the end of the hallway.
Sure enough, he does his business and realizes that there's just not enough to clean up. He screams for my attention and demanded that I bring him another roll. I replied back taht I couldn't; I was busy. He then had to pull up his underwear and his pants, walk to the other end of the hallway, reach into the far corner of the linen closet, walk all the way back & clean up.
I didn't have to worry about the toilet paper supply for a long, long, long time...

Woman if you change the roll.
MOTHER if you change the roll, put three rolls on the back of the toilet and write toilet paper on the shopping list!

[quote=quiltmom04 If I had it to do over again I would NEVER have taught the boys to pee standing up! Or I would have had a urinal installed right off![/quote]
When they were younger - potty training young - I wanted to put a drain in the middle of the bathroom floor and just use a hose to wash down the bathroom and the dining room - you know how they do at fast food resturants....never did that - thought about the urinal thing too - never did that either! Should have - just didn't!

OK, so THEY didn't learn. Now, YOU need to learn to check the roll of toilet paper BEFORE you use the toilet. No problems, as YOU are going to take care of it after all, but at least you won't be in a bad position for not having checked in the first place.
