Challenge #2

Second challenge: The last roll of toilet paper gets wet!! Augh!! 

Well, I thought of lots of possibilities.  Someone told me the Minto Resource Centre sells individual rolls of toilet paper so I went after school but I was too late as it was closed but that was one possibility AND I had a car.  If I lived far from Minto, walking a huge distance might seem too much.  I would have asked a neighbour, tried to wait until I got to my place of work or buy that 67 cent box of kleenex.  Dignity is a word that is popping up a lot for me in these challenges.
