Winter 2017/2018 Fashions, Part 1

Friday, December 08, 2017

Last night, I took out the trash, as well as all three large bins so that the Waste Management people will also exchange my larges bins for small bins. My Beetle keeps colliding with the three large bins at the right side of the garage wall, and I just noticed two dents at the right front section of my car, over the tire. Next year, I will need to go to the dealership for an estimate. But, for now, I will use the small garbage bins. I went outside at 3 pm, to see the three small garbage bins at my curb, and they looked cute. It was like my three large garbage bins reproduced small ones and died. I opened the garage door to place the three small ones in the same area, and they all fit there neatly as well as they were easier to manage. I changed my clothes for tonight’s Woodbridge walking group meetup at 6 pm, and then I turned on my computer.

Moreover, I just received the Winter 2017/2018 issue of California Style magazine in my mailbox.
