Unisex?

A week ago Sat my Home Depot was in the OremFest parade.
It was pretty fun. We didn't have a lot of employees to accompany the "float" it will be better planned next year. (I was not in charge by the way)
I got to haul Homer around in the work truck.
...and try not to run over the marching band in front of me.
If you didn't notice from the previous pictures I brought the kids and the husband along. Here we are waiting for them to call our number so we can go be the life of the party.

About a month or two ago I was on my way into the ladies room when I noticed a man walking out of one of the stalls. I did a double take went out looked at the door to make sure I wasn't confused after using the same work bathroom for over 7 years and decided I was not wrong. He said they were taking for ever to clean the mens room and he didn't feel like using a tree out front. Whatever. Today I was walking in there once again and there is another man there washing his hands. (Janitors were not cleaning the mens room this time.) I backed out checked the door and sat on the bench waiting for him to leave. My manager couldn't stop laughing because all he saw was me backing out of the restroom really slow. I figured the absence of a urinal may have been his first clue but...we'll chalk it up to old age perhaps?

Oh and OremFest had some pretty awesome fireworks. Too bad I ran out of time before all the concussion bombs went off.

Orem Fest looks awesome, but perhaps you could get the same float into the Parowan parade? That would really be exciting. I'm gonna have to cut these guys some slack - I've used the mens restroom wayyyy more than is normal to admit. Most often because I don't look at the door sign close enough. And I never notice the urinals till it's too late.

That is so funny about your bathroom situation. Maybe you should suggest some bigger signs or something.

The fireworks trumped the Santa Monica behind the Tree fireworks but barely the Tinkerbell/Dumbo behind the tree fireworks.
I hear you on the bathroom thing. I'm guilty of using the mens when the ladies room is a mile long. The probably just realized it's cleaner.
Miss u alreay.
