Sadly, our counter-top compost bin does not have a lid and it often rivals your bathroom garbage experiment. I honestly don't know how the rest of the family doesn't see it.

Ours gets way out of control. My daughter had bathroom garbage duty FOREVER - when we switched jobs it went to her older brother. Disaster! He might finally empty them after days of gradually increased volume shouting, but he usually fails to put in a replacement bag. More screaming. Our bigger issue at the moment is a kid who is spitting toothpaste directly at the mirror. There's no other explanation. I'd consider a hidden camera, but it's a bathroom.

I tend to pack 2x as much knitting as I could possibly accomplish, so I admire your restraint. On the other hand, you'll be sitting on the train looking at the Great Plains for days - maybe you need a book too?Ann in NJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08867456693546188505noreply@blogger.com
