The toilet paper bandit and her accomplice

Zany Janie has been exploring her surroundings more and more now that she is mobile. In doing so, she has found a new passion of unrolling toilet paper. To prevent this from happening I have been keeping the bathroom doors shut, but somehow she finds her way to the toilet paper roll. I finally caught the toilet paper bandit and her accomplice in the act! Wacky Zacky has been observed opening the bathroom doors for Zany Janie then quietly whispering “Sis! Sis!” while pointing to the toilet paper. Zany Janie happily and quickly races to the toilet paper and unravels as much as she can before she gets caught red handed. Once she gets caught Wacky Zacky sits back innocently watching as if he does not have a part in this crime! Just when I think it won’t happen again the toilet paper bandit strikes yet again!

Zany thought of the day: I recently realized that some people feel very strongly about whether toilet paper should be installed in a dispenser so that it rolls over or under. I never knew people felt so strong about this complex moral issue. I also realized that this issue bothers some people so much that when visiting another person's house they will actually take the time to change the orientation of the toilet paper. For me, I guess I'm just a go with the flow kind of Mama because I roll both ways.

Your Zany Janie and my Halas and Lombardi would make quite the toilet paper thieving gang. Just be happy she doesn't eat it and then poop it out in the backyard. : )

Oh, and the paper should totally always roll from the top.

Obviously, Janie is debating the over the top or underneath tissue issue and she is just making sure she has enough info from both sides . . .

I have to admit I have been known to change the paper roll at someone else's house. I don't recall if I changed yours last weekend but Maybe??(over the top) Grandma B
