Finally, A Clean Toilet


First of all, let me say to my mother, that there is some justice in this world after all.  Your daughter now gets excited over clean toilets.  Let's all hold hands, put daisy chains in our hair and hum in celebration.  I'd say I've come a long way since the days of wearing my pajamas inside out every other night so as to avoid having to turn them right side out unnecessarily.

And second of all, let me say, my toilets are clean.  They just have the unsightly look of being dirty.  Which is really just as bad.  We have a community well and since our water isn't city water, it leaves mineral stains in places where water stands.  Like three toilet bowls in a house for a working married couple.  I naively thought I could simply scrub the stains clean after I noticed thm.  And scrub I have, with every cleaning product labeled "for use on tough stains" and with more than a little elbow grease.  But to no avail.  I had finally come to begrudging terms with the those marks.  Figuring I would just have to buy new toilets before we sold the house at some point.  I had gotten used to muttering under my breath when I made plans to have company over.  That is, until this weekend, when my neighbor mentioned a product she'd discovered while helping her sister move into a new house.  I made Travis rush right out and get one.  AND IT WORKED!   (Kind of makes me wonder what they would do for calloused mommy feet that haven't seen a pedicure in many a moon.)  Did I care that with each scrub a sound much like nails on a chalkboard reverberated through the bowl and around the bathroom.  Nope!  My bowls were coming clean!!  Oh happy day...
