Under or Over?---A wife's lesson

Bret and I have been known to have a random conversation or two in our over seven years of marriage. But every once in a while, the randomness can lead to a revelation.


Me: Do we need toilet paper?

Bret: Yes.

Me: Is it on the Target list?

Bret: I think.

Me: How do you like your toilet paper? Under or over?

Bret: Honestly, I just prefer it on the roll!


Wife confession no. 245---As embarrassed as I am to admit it, I have an awfully bad habit of not always putting the new toilet paper on the roll. But it wasn't until this conversation that I realized just how much my omission bugged my husband. I could blame my toilet paper faux pas on the audience of one that now accompanies me on my every trip to the lou, or say that my days are just so busy that I can't be bothered with such mundane tasks. But that would be a bunch of malarky! Gillian Grace is just a harmless observer, and no one, not even Oprah, is that busy.

So I'm guessing that must just mean I'm lazy! But, I promise to right this wrong beginning now and never again leave my darlin' without his Charmin!
