Re: The Random Thread
You mean me or mom always end up doing it, and you guys don't even bother to put the next roll in the cupboard in the br when you see it's getting low. If you did, you'd be able to tell mom when she goes to the grocery store that we need more when the linen closet gets low.stitch626 wrote:I mean someone else does it, I never end up using the last piece.
