Old people’s restroom problems

I’m sure most of you young ones hasn’t even thought of having bladder problems when you are older. Much much older.

First I want to start off with public restrooms. So there is a big problem now about which restroom to use. We have restrooms for men and women. We also have restrooms that both can go into. But it is for one person at a time. The problem people are having is that some genders is using the wrong label restroom. People are afraid that men dress up as women. Shouldn’t be in them. Here is my thoughts. When I use to go to the beach with my parents. Let’s say about 40ish years ago. When I had to use the public restroom at the beach. I had to go with one of my sisters or someone I know. Why did you ask? Because public restrooms are available to everyone you don’t know. If we saw anyone that makes us uncomfortable or shouldn’t be in the restroom at the time we entered,We simply turn around and leave. . Simple isn’t it? That was 40 something years ago. Why can’t we use the same rules as today?

My pet peeves about public restrooms

  1. Walking in a stall and the toilet has not been flushed.
  2. I’m not sure which is worse. No toilet paper or the kind you only get a square at a time. I get in a panic state trying to get the darn t paper out of the roll.
  3. Walking in a stall and there is pee all over the floor.
  4. Closing the stall door and it doesn’t lock or about 2 inches gap where everyone can see you as they walk by
  5. A automatic faucet where you put your hands under and nothing happens. So you are waving your hands back and forward, while people are looking at you like You never used a automatic faucet before.
  6. SOAP!. Where is the soap? Is it a automatic one or push? Again people looking at you like you never use one before.
  7. Time to dry the hands. I hate the air blow dryer. I refuse to us it. I never ever had my hand dry from those things. I will use my pants period.
  8. The automatic paper towel. So many times, And I seen many others. Waving at that thing like your life depends on it. All I want is a small piece, anything to dry my hands. As one finally comes out.The feeling is pure joy.

OLD PEOPLE BLADDER PROBLEMS PET PEEVES

  1. Having a urge to go while you’re in the store or another public place.
  2. Your first thought when your at a new place, Is where is the restroom.
  3. Once your in the restroom and Just a little comes out. You get off the toilet, pull up your pants and have to go again. I have this 4 times in a roll once. Before I left the stall.
  4. Made it to the restroom and you almost have your pants down but not fast enough.
  5. We all know what happens when we laugh.
  6. Having to wear pads again when you finally thought you never had to use them again,
  7. And last but not least. All the pet peeves above.

With that said. I have to leave now and use the restroom.

House cleaning dirty secret

My husband and I are retired. So we share the chores. He does the outside chores and I do the indoor. He always complains that he works hard. Mowing the lawn on a riding lawnmower, Haul the trash off, spray the weeds, ect ect. I do the inside chores. Laundry, clean and vacuum the floors, make the bed, clean bathroom. Dishes, dust . Ect ect. Now inside chores are everyday duties. The outside chores Maybe 3 hours of mowing a week and spraying the weeds once a month and trash every other day. Can you see my point ? Yes! I do way more then he does. He is also A outdoors guy, So he is outside a lot kicking back, watching the bird ect ect..So I came up with a great Idea. Since he doesn’t think I do A lot of chores. I decided to play a little game.

My dirty little secret. I do my chores every single day. but since he is outside most of the time. He doesn’t think I do much. So this is what I do. I would start a load of laundry or some chore I need to do, before he goes to town or outside. I would get the broom or vacuum cleaner out. Then I would take a break and kick back. When I hear him coming in, I would Jump up and turn on the vacuum or scrub the tub or whatever I need to do. I would say something like, I need a break or your back already. Now he thinks I been doing housework all that time. Of course I do a little so he thinks I did something while he was away. Like clean the dishes or throw in a load of laundry. And that my folks is The Dirty little house cleaning secret. Shhh don’t tell no one. He he 😀🍽
