Toilet Paper

So, hubby and I have been arguing over toilet paper. Normally, I buy this toilet paper. It has lotion and aloe and vitamin E in it. I didn't mind at first. When I first started buying it, it was around 5 bucks for 6 rolls. More expensive than the others but my hubby doesn't ask for much. Well, the price eventually crept up to about 7 bucks. A few years more and you couldn't just get 6 rolls, you had to buy 12 rolls and it was $10. Well, money was tight last week so I bought some cheap toilet paper just to get us through but I told him I was no longer going to get his toilet paper because it was too much. He threw a fit and demanded I go get it. I said no. I felt empowered having so much control over the comfort of his butt.

On another note (this will eventually tie into to the first part of the story), I have been doing very well on my "lifestyle change." I am not going to call this a diet. It sounds negative and diets don't work. Also, thank you very much to all that left comments and suggestions. I appreciated that very much.

Anyways, all week I have been watching what I eat, drinking lots of water, even no Dr. Pepper. A friend called and wanted to go to lunch Friday. Eating out is probably my biggest weakness. This time was no exception. I blew it. Big time. I didn't beat myself up though. Until supper. Hubby and I got Mi Pueblo, one of our favorite mexican restaurants.

After dinner my stomach let me know right quick that it was PISSED at me. You see, after eating healthy for a week and then dropping all that very unhealthy food on my stomach was bad news. Let's just say I made more than one trip to the bathroom over the course of the evening and into the morning.

I am now, as quickly as I can dress myself and the kids, on my way to Wal-Mart to get the aloe and vitamin E toilet paper. My rear end can no longer endure the John Wayne toilet paper. You know, "rough and tough and don't take shit off no one."
