Old Expressions!

Have you heard the expression "don't throw the baby out with the bath water"? Well, I finally figured out what it means. This morning I was changing the toilet paper roll. I had just woke up and was still dozy. In other words, the mind was not totally functioning yet. I pulled the roll out from the wall, slipped off the cardboard roll and promptly threw it ALL in the garbage. The empty roll and the roller! It took a second or a mili second before I realized what I did but that expression immediately came to mind. I guess I had just 'thrown out the baby with the bath water'. It made me chuckle. First chuckle of the day. The mind is an amazing thing...or not!
