For some reason, my apartment can be freezing, but the bathroom stays ridiculously hot, so I've never had this problem.....

I love it! Do you remember when the toliet paper came in colors to match the bathroom? *lol* My hubby actually LOOKED for it the other day in the store. I haven't seen that stuff in years.

When I lived in Boston for grad school the house I was renting had an old radiator heat system. Complete with a nice old boiler in the basement.

Let me tell you once they fixed the radiators at the beginning of the winter, those babies would put out some heat even with the knobs "off." Our bathroom had its own and that room was the warmest in the house. Complete with a nice cozy toilet in the morning.

For those that have it-does radiant heat in a bathroom help at all with cold toilet issue? Perhaps if your feet are a least warm, the seat doesn't bother you as much.

My Powder Room is right over the furnace. It's the warmest place in the house

My parents used to have one of those padded toilet seats- it was plastic but was squishy. Apparently their cat didn't like it either because she chewed holes into it and they had to replace it with a normal seat.

I didn't realize they made fuzzy covers for the actual seat part. My mother in law bought me one for the lid (apparently in her world all toilet lids must have covers) but I've never seen one for the seat.

The secret to commode seat lids -the thicker the cover is, the harder it is to leave the seat up.

ah, gotcha. But when you have a 5 year old with bad aim and a 2 year old just starting to use the commode (I'm not even going to coment on the husband) , toilet seat covers are also stink (and who knows what else) magnets!

I did some investigating and realized there's no vent in the bathroom, so when the A/C acts up and does the "too cold" thing, it doesn't stretch to the bathroom. Lol, I'm thinking of camping out in the bathtub for the rest of the winter! It's seriously cold everywhere else and my bed is right next to the window--that's only okay when it's not January.

Lol, and I love the super padded seats that force the male species to put the sucker down! Viva la padded seat!

LOL - seriously, what if she has.... a problem? How do they get that seat on in time?


By the way, summer_gphib, I found the cutest tp the other day! It was made for kids, to show them how much to use - so there were paws on a few sheets, then a puppy to show them where to quit! It was made by Cottonelle, I think.

Hahah that's cute...I think...

Have you seen that foamy soap for kids? It's in a purple and green bottle, and there's a frog wiping his butt on the front label. He wipes his butts in commercials, too! (I think its Kandoo?)
