a few days ago as I was driving on my way to work, I saw a plastic cup, a water bottle and a soft drink can within about four blocks in my neighbourhood… downtown it is much worse, even though there are garbage cans in many places…

makes me crazy and also worried that people are just not caring about their surroundings…

I still put wrappers or other dry garbage in my pockets to take home when I am out and there isn’t a garbage can or recycling bin close by…

although George smoked he rarely tossed a butt out the window of the car or left it on the street…

the girls learned very early that littering was just not done…

crazy…

tonight I took a picture of another scary thing… a spider den in the basement… it has been there for a while now and every time I go down to the basement I have to check to make sure the spider, which is very big, is not out of his nest…

spider den in the drywall…

will have to have my son-in-law deal with it this weekend…

big girl pants aren’t fitting so well today…
