Tee shirts with tails long enough that keep the neighbors from hollerin' when I go out to get the paper, are my favorites, sometimes. At other times, forgetting their length causes some embarrassing situations when we can't holler for "Housekeeping". To keep my back warm tee shirttails are often tucked in. But, when wearing diapers is NOT the time to tuck. Most are VERY absorbent. Another thing to remember is that when you turn a fresh diaper wrong side out in order to affix an extra pad for more "carrying capacity", turn it back to right side out before donning it. The first time it's supposed to "absorb" it will get your attention. I promise. Our granddaughter was two the time she went to Dr. Parikh's office with us. The show she put on for the packed waiting room included a not so quiet announcement, "I'm a big girl so I don't have to wear diapers anymore, but my grandpa does." "Yeah, thanks Pink Lizzie." One other tidbit, you know that sweet puff of air you enjoy when you pull the drawstrings on a garbage bag? Just wait until you go to close the bag out of a huge diaper pail.

  • What is so bad about wearing diapers?
    I have been for 27 years and I don't care who knows about them.
    It is my choice of underwear.

  • Rusty, I could tell you a tale that would crack you up, but it might be TMI for this crowd. And yep, I am sick of the alternate lifestyles, politics, and state of the union.

  • Back in the old days, readers would sometimes offer predicaments they'd had so others could get a chuckle. Thanks for your input. Isn't this better than stirring everybody up by pounding on alternate life styles?
