Mystery Solved

It is a common complaint amongst women. Why can't men put the toilet seat down?

And I have solved the mystery. As a mom to two boys, I have learned a few things. They can't be bothered to flush. Yuck! And they can't be bothered to lift the seat. And they dribble on the seat. Also yuck!

So moms of previous generations probably had to put with the same thing. And they probably reached the same conclusion that I have. It would be easier, and faster, to leave the toilet seat up. Because having to clean the seat every time before you sit down is getting really, really old. And no matter how many times I tell them to lift the seat, I still find dribble. So I am switching to leaving the seat up. As the only girl in the house, it is the best I can do.

I will still have to flush the downstairs toilet almost every time I walk by. But one battle at a time.

Glad you figured it out! Sounds like I missed a great book club. Darn sickness at the wrong time. But, I guess when is it a good time?!

It's the same at our house! Why don't little boys like to flush?! I don't get it. However, since Michael is outnumbered by the girls, I'm not quite ready to give up on the toilet seat yet. I'm glad you've been able to make peace with it though.

Boy dribble is one of my hugest pet peeves...
