Now surely I'll get a Google Wack for that Phrase. Yesterday saw both my bathrooms being ripped apart by plumbers to install two new dunnies and two new basins. And since they were going to turn up at the ungodly hour of 7:30am, I had to make sure everything was in order before they arrived. By this I mean that I had to make sure that everyone in the house has used EVERYTHING in the bathroom that they needed to as there would not be another chance until the late afternoon. Now for kids this is not that much of a hassle. Especially for my youngest, I just had to yell down the hall, "You have to go and do a poo now because you won't be able to do another one for the rest of the day" and off he went.

And so I went into training. Since I knew this was coming for a few weeks in advance, I was able to condition myself and change the rhythm just enough so that on the big day I could perform when I needed to.

Of course the boys could only hold onto some things for so long after having cereal with milk and juice for breakfast and then some water and stuff later on. I have to admit even I was pushing my boundaries by lunch time so when one of them walked up to me and asked to go to the toilet, I told them that we would all have to go in the back yard. Of coursethere there were celebrations all round at this annoucment. What guy doesn't enjoy taking a wiz in the garden?

The three of us all lined up watering the lawn in flagrant violation of Sydney's current restrictions, what a picture it would have made.

I did however stress many times to them that we were only doing wees. Nothing else. Repeat we are not going to do anything else!

Update...

Sadly I didn't get a Google Whack for the Phrase Tactical Defecation as the Google Whack rules stipulate that it doesn't count if you use quotation marks.
