Simple, wrap, of course! Shall I explain?
I go to some lengths to “wrap” our trash before depositing in the garage trash bin. Linda was at first amused and has lately come to the conclusion I may need help. So I have come to you, my adoring fans, to weigh in on the subject.
I don’t use wrapping paper but if we have a non-recyclable paper or plastic container I seal some trash in it. There is a reason. We have a small 1-car garage and it gets hot in the summer causing the trash to give off an unpleasant odor. I tried buying a trashcan deodorant; you know, covering it up with perfume, like the French. It was inconvenient. I had to move it each time I deposited one on my creations. Please note: since I have begun wrapping, no smell.
Linda does not dispute the success of my work but thinks I should refrain from taking such pleasure in my wrapping skill and insisting she views it before going into the trash. My thought is what if Picasso dumped “Starry Night” before anyone saw it? What a loss!
So if you are ever in the neighborhood feel free to drop in for a sniff and a view. Your journey will not go unrewarded.
Who said I would be bored in retirement!
