No toilet paper, no paper towel, no will to live....

No toilet paper, no paper towel, no will to live....


I had a rough morning Saturday. Not only did I not sleep well, but I pretty much wanted to just crawl into bed and cry all day.

I actually did for a little while.....

But when I found myself using paper towels for toilet paper I decided I'd better get my act together and get some fucking toilet paper.

So, I took a shower. And then I did my hair. Before I knew it I was dressed and in my car, marveling at the fall colors.

Summer may be my favorite season, but fall is definitely the most beautiful.

The next thing I knew I was driving through Petoskey on my way to the Tunnel of Trees to check things out.

A little premature, I'm afraid, as those trees were still predominately green, but everywhere else there was peak color.

It didn't even bother me that I was flying solo.

Sometimes I think.... I can handle this thing called being single. It's a journey of self discovery!

Sometimes I think.... Wow, I really wish I had someone here to experience this with me.

Most of the time I'm somewhere in the middle... I like the fact that I can hop in my car and just take off anytime I want, but it sure would be nice to have a little company once in a while.

Perhaps that company would have reminded me to pick up toilet paper.

Cause, you guessed it. I may have initially left with the sole intent to purchase toilet paper, I never actually did purchase the toilet paper.

    If you get up this way again you need to stop in. I live near the north end of the tunnel of trees. Maybe we could make it a fulfilling lazy day. And yes I have toilet paper...LOL
You'll need to let me know when the colors are peak in the tunnel. It's a beautiful sight to behold when they are, one of my favorite fall road trips.

    Oh well, you got plenty of paper towels, right?
Paper towels are a little rough on the rear.... I did force myself to venture out one more time and actually did return back home with tp this time. I consider it a personal victory.

    Glad you turned your day around and appreciated the beauty around you.
I'm glad I did too. It turned out to be a truly beautiful drive.

    Thank goodness for the single life..I do every day ..dont have to answer to any one ..can do what i want go where i want and eat sleep or dress or not...pick and choose who i want to be with or spend time alone...There comes a time when company would be nice but its not the end of the world....dont take things so hard thank goodness for the single life every day....forget fast food crap like MacDonalds them places is for cryers and old people ...eat healthy !
I've been single for a long time, nearly 10 years now since I got divorced. I'm not quite sure what has gotten in to me lately..... It's like a switch got flipped somehow. Maybe its because my kids are getting older and they no longer consume so much of my time.

    You should have added a photo or two. Going to Gatlinburg is two weeks and hope to see the colors there.
I was driving, so I couldn't really take any quality photos. I could have stopped along the way, I suppose... But I didn't. I chose to just take in the scenery and create a mental image.

    ( mcdonald's napkins make wonderful toilet paper - I always grab a big extra handful when I visit )
I'll have to keep that in mind for next time. I did force myself to be an adult and went back out to pick up tp.
