I have no idea but I've heard you can use coffee filters as toilet paper although it does change the taste of the coffee a bit.......

Chipper,

We are hunkered down here. I have cabin (read homestead) fever and I'm going stir crazy.

The WX is beautiful and I can't take the old car for a ride.

Shifting to my feed and leaving the property will likely result in my incarceration which considering my state of mind, my mouth may get me locked up for a while.

I can't take it anymore. I'm leaving the planet.

BTW: We are down to using Visa paper towels now. After I get a garage container with the foot activated lid full of the stuff I take it out in the back yard and wash it out and then hang it on the clothes line. It only lasts a couple washings, though. Think I'll just skip the scrub board and see if that will result in longer life. What we need is a lead on some old fashioned diapers. dance Anyone recall those things? Agrin

It will keep fresh one year if you dry your TP in an oven for an hour at 350 and then use a quality freezer bag.

I keep hearing people whine about being bored. I do not understand the concept of bored and suspect many here don't either. If I quit working, it would take me several years to catch up with things I'm behind with. I got busier with this mess as everything takes extra steps to stay uncontaminated and has added more layers of management to every situation...

Charlie, if you have a full tank of gas you can make it to my house and back so "come on down". I'll put the soup on and we can watch some westerns on TV......and a good cold Pepsi.

So...what ya waiting on. I've been tested, at my doctor appt Tuesday, and I've lysoled everything. :)

My gas millage is terrible,I've used half a tank of gas in the last 3 weeks and haven't gone a mile! I tried recycling my TP but the spin cycle in the washer rips it to shreds!
