My brother says that I seem to accumulate an inordinate amount of trash. My husband agrees. As I look at the trash can tonight, and try to figure out why this is just an Amy thing, I realized something obvious.
I'm the only one who ever throws anything away!
Everyone else seems to think that garbage miraculously finds its way into the trash can. At least, that is what it seems to them. Why wouldn't it? I'm always walking around, picking up everyone else's crap. Napkins? Of course, they should be crumpled up on the plate where your food used to reside. Pieces of paper? Well, of course, leave them laying all over the counter - why should we be able to tell what color the countertop is?
I am proud to be the one who generates garbage. It means that I am not allowing clutter to overwhelm my life. If you want to be surrounded by the evidence of your day, knock yourself out. For me, I'll proudly wear my "garbage hat".
You? You just keep leaving your crap all over the place.
hahaha you'd have a field day at my house.. well at least "last year"you would have.
ReplyDeleteThis year I am wearing that hat as well. I think it's one size fits all right? well. The garbage generator hat is on my head and I refuse to live in a home that is nasty. Everyone has to pick up their crap. No more nice mom. You make the mess, you clean it. The last time I checked, I didn't have the word "maid" stamped across my forehead.
