Proof


Every husband or wife has a few things that they do {or don't do in this case} that has their spouse asking themselves.. "Is it really that hard for him/her to do such a simple thing?" Kinda like the lid off the toothpaste thing..

One of Rob's lovely habits is his shoes. He is great at taking his shoes off in the house but horrible at getting them in the shoe basket. He will kick them off right next to the shoe basket instead of lifting his foot 10 inches to kick them off into the basket.
Silly guy.

Mine is the toilet paper. Ever since we have been married when I need more toilet paper I grab it out of the cupboard, grab what I need, put it on the counter, and move on with my life.
Usually after a few bathroom trips I'll put it on the roll if Rob hasn't beat me to it {he almost always does}. After we had been married 2 years Rob finally had to say something. "Why not just put it on the toilet paper roll in the first place?" I seriously don't know why.. I just don't think about it.

Fast forward 4 years and I'm still doing it. Sorry Rob. A few months back Rob told me he was sick of being the only one to replace the roll. It really gets to him I guess ha ha love him! The funny thing is that I felt like I was the only one replacing the roll! So the next time that I was replacing the roll I had a brilliant idea....I would save every roll that I changed as "proof" for the next time he brought up the fact that I never do it.

In the beginning I wrote on the empty roll the time, date, and what bathroom that it came from but by the end of the second month I was just throwing the 'proof' into my secret drawer with a chuckle. As my stash grew bigger I waited anxiously for Rob to say something and he finally did last week! I had forgot to replace the roll and as Rob was brushing his teeth he said, "Is it really that hard to just put the toilet paper on the roll when you pull it out of the cupboard?"

When I showed him my stash he died laughing but in the end he was still convinced he is the only one who replaces the rolls.. Oh well, you can't win 'em all :)

This is so awesome. I am laughing so hard right now. I never would have made it I would have showed Scott the stash a long time ago.

Chad and I just had a good laugh. The best part is that you actually started hiding them - you are too funny!

THAT is hilarious!!! Darin and I have the same problem...He has been complaining about it since day one! BUT I SWEAR I have gotten so much better!!! I might have to start saving mine as proof as well!

hahahahaha....how could Rob dispute that evidence?!? The thing that gets me is when Patrick puts the toilet paper on the wrong way...like with the toilet paper unrolling UP rather than DOWN. haha

I just may have to use this as a funny story in the marriage class I teach... I also think it is funny that you and Shannon's last 2 posts have the same title. One of which are the same post the other ones could not be more different!
I think these little things are what make a marriage.
