I have noticed something about myself that is not a good thing. I spend more time on the pot than ever before. Which reminds me of a joke someone told me. “Stand on the toilet and get high on Pot”. Hmm. Sorry, couldn’t resist. Well, since I have aged more this seems to correlate to spending quality time on the throne. It’s actually not even quality time since I forget reading material since I don’t know if I will be awhile or not.
This is not a good trend since I currently live in my Mom’s basement with one bathroom and my wife and 5 daughters. Or, maybe this is good and forces the kids to go upstairs and ask Grandma if they can use the guest closet. They don’t even have to ask but it gets them seen and heard by the other generation. Communication can be done in so many ways.
It’s gotten bad enough that the wife has mentioned it and the girls are totally trying to beat me to the bathroom if I seem headed that way. Fortunately for me I am still faster and stronger than they are. Time will betray me but I am sure to start my exercise regime next week. Or the one after that…Can’t remember when I scheduled that.
It has gotten frequent enough that I can now use it to irritate any of my kids who may have irritated, bugged, disobeyed or bothered me previously. “sorry this is taking so long, might want to go upstairs”. Just as a disclaimer, I have never done so, just saying I could, if I wanted to. But not to you Co. Ever. Promise. However, kids beware. Or visiting family. Now, where did I put that book and the air freshener?

Yeah but now you can’t do that, since we have 3 bathrooms.
Though for me they are still upstairs 
Oh well!
