Garbage taker-outer reminders now needed

It happened again this morning.

I heard the garbage truck coming through the neighborhood.

"Shit, I forgot to put the garbage cans out on the curb again!"

I rushed and got them out in a nick of time.

Tuesdays and Fridays have always been "house" garbage pick-up days.

Wednesdays is for recycling and "yard" trash.

Putting the cans on the curb was always just routine on those days, prior to heading off to work. 

It's always been a source of pride to be our households garbage taker-outer as it's apparent that no-one else could ever remember 😏!

I'm a list man for the things I need to get done, especially on a day off.

However, a reminder for the garbage cans to be on the curb had never previously been necessary.

But now that everyday, for the last month, has been a Saturday, I'll add it to the list of things I need to do as a reminder!
