Let's Talk Handicap Bathrooms

This may seem like a strange post, but for the last month I have been using a scooter and let me tell you...  There are some bathroom issues I will never forget.  Don't be alarmed.  I am NOT going to go into anything too personal.  :)  
So...  the very first thing I want everyone to know is that there is usually only 1 handicap bathroom to the regular 4 or 5.  This means that when you (not you literally of course) use that one, we have to wait until you are done, even if all the other bathrooms are empty.  
Think about that now...  Did you really have to go that badly that you have to make me wait on you?  Hmmmm...  I know I will never use a handicap bathroom again.  
The next thing I want to mention is that the handles in the handicap bathroom are not always in the right place.  When you need a handle close to the toilet and it is all the way across the giant stall... well... you probably know what I am thinking.  
There is no hovering over a public restroom when you are impaired.  You have to sit down.  There is no choice.  So...  if you sprinkle when you tinkle...  be a sweetie and wipe the seatie.  And then grab a clorox wipe and clean it thoroughly.  Oh a girl can dream...

  1. In some of the schools in our district there is only one bathroom that everyone has to share, which is an even bigger issue! That "if you sprinkle..." saying is posted on the bathroom wall!

  2. Deb,
    I love you! You're calling me out! I sometime choose this restroom because the seat is taller and my knees seem far advanced than their actual age, but I will now reconsider my choice!
    Bless your heart sweetie!
