I want to ask this, and want an honest answer!!!!!

WHO of you ladies, would have thought of using a wastebasket, with a bag in it for easy disposal???????

I'll be honest, i NEVER would have come up with that idea!!!!

Nope, can't say I've ever used the wastebasket before. That's a new one to me, LOL.

Well, I was gone for a day and look what y'all are talking about!!

I'd always heard that when people get really desperate for something to talk about, they discuss the weather.

Y'all discuss loo's and poo!!! Really ladies!!!! LMAO

BTW, Janet, I remember out houses, but down here we at least had toilet paper. Guess Indiana was a little behind the times.

Marilyn, how can you not talk about loo's and poo when the title of the post is "Yay!!!! I get to use the toilet again!!!!" There's just all kinds of things that can poop,....... er, I mean........ poo, er no,......... pop into your head!!!

I learn something new everyday, esp. about the Sears and Roebuck catalog lol I like Mandy am a city girl. Janet I am happy to hear that everything is back to working order.

Yep, we had an outhouse till I was 9 years old - except that in the summer there would be yellow jacket nests in the ceiling so I was afraid to go in it. I'd go out behind the barn when I was little before I learned how to deal with the wasps!!!

I'm glad some of you remember the old outhouses, great picture Sheryl. I never even thought about posting a picture. Some friends of ours had the double-seater, I almost forgot about that. Back then the catalog pages were not that slick paper like most have now, it was a little rougher.

Just think AngieDoogles if you thought they were awful in girlscouts, we had to use them ALL the time. Try going out in the wintertime....not fun.

The Outhouse

The service station was slow
The owner sat around,
With sharpened knife and ceder
stick
Piled shavings on the ground.

No modern facilities had they,
The log across the rill
Led to a shack, marked His and
Hers
That sat against the hill.

"Where is the ladies restrooom, sir?"
The owner leaning back,
Said not a word but whittled on,
And nodded toward the shack.

With quickened step she entered
there
But only stayed a minute,
Until she screamed, just like a
snake
Or spider might be in it.

With startled look and beet-red
face
She bounded through the door,
And headed quickly for the car
Just like three gals before.

She missed the foot log - jumped
the stream
The owner gave a shout.
As her silk stockings, down at her
knees
Caught on a sassafras srpout.

She tripped and fell - got up, and
then
In obvious disgust,
Ran to the car, stepped on the gas,
And faded in the dust.

Of course we all desired to know
What made the gals all do
The things they did, and then we
found
The whittling onwer new.

A speaking system he'd devised,
To make the thing complete,
He tied a speaker on the wall
Beneith the toilet seat.

He'd wait until the gals got set
And then the devilish tyke,
Would stop his whittling long
enough,
To speak into the mike.

And as she sat, a voice below
Struck terror, fright and fear,
"Will you please use the other hole,
We're painting under here!"

Our Amish neighbors still use outhouses, so I never got to forget what they are.
We did have an outhouse when I was a preschooler. I vividly remember having to go outside to use it and being afraid I'd fall in and never be heard from again.

I'm glad you got your tanks pumped!
