Toilets, Toilet guts, and The Lids! - TMI

beep..beep...beep..This is TMI news reporting from the Hartley's Home! HAHAHAHA Here goes I need you to first think of the story Goldilock's and Three Bear's. Remember, in that story that the Papa bear's stuff was to hard, and the mama bear's stuff was to soft, then the baby bear's stuff was just right. Note we haven't found "just right." Well, that is how it is with the toilet seats around our house. Since we have owned our current home we have had so many issue with the bathroom toilet's. We have had to replace them and much discussion goes into the right size, color, and brand. We have had the guts of the toilet fall apart, which then leaves a black rubbery film around the toilet bowl. Did you know that? Sigh! I never thought I would have to know that! But, I do! It's happened on more than one occasion. I hate it, because I can clean the toilet inside and about an hour later black film. Almost looks like ashes. It disgust this neat freak!

I have to tell you about the toilet seats specifically. We have had those cheapo seats that after all the moisture in the bathroom gets to them they start flacking and well sticking to places you don't want white paint, again TMI! We have had plastic seats that some how always break where the seat is connected to the toilet. Recently though, it was my turn to pick!!! SMILE!!! Yep, and I bet you can't guess but I have a favorite kind of toilet seat!And I never get it! It's the nice soft and cushiony kind. I was so happy that I got to pick. So, Greg graciously went along with this even though this is not his favorite. BUTT, (sorry I had too) We/ HE is having another issue with this seat. I love it, don't get me wrong! You'll see. He hates it because in the middle of the night when you have to get up and use the restroom... he flips the seat up (while sleep walking, mind you) and right in the middle of him going...I hear "bang" and... the seat falls down! LAUGHING!!! I then hear this groan from the bathroom and then I hear the toilet paper roll spinning because, yes!!! You have the image right...the urine has splattered! Are you laughing...because I am rolling! My sleeping husband is trying to clean at 3:00 a.m. in a dark bathroom. This effects me, because I still have to clean it in the morning. Although, I give him credit he is a great urine cleaner...TMI!! SO Sorry! You get that way after four children! So, next time you see Greg, ask him if he has a new toilet seat yet? I think he has about had enough with my soft cushiony one~ Shannon

Note: Apparently I didn't know how to spell toilet and now I do!!!
