Today is trash day. You may be thinking so what? You are right. Trash day is a very ordinary occurrence. Where I live the trash comes twice a week with the recycling coming once. The problem is that until hubby left I never really gave too much thought to trash day. My amazing hubby always took the trash down the the curb on trash day without me having to ask him. He would do it early in the morning usually before or after PT and by the time I got up the trash was already sitting dutifully by the curb waiting to be picked up. Yes I knew it was trash day and often made sure that the household trash was in the trashcan outside but I never really gave a second thought to getting it down to the curb.
The day hubby left everything changed. Unfortunately I have to admit that I completely missed the first two trash pickups after he left. I woke up to the sound of the trash truck only to realize that my garbage can was still sitting by my garage where the trash collectors would not touch it instead of by the curb where it would be emptied. I had become so used to hubby taking care of it that it hadn't even crossed my mind until it was to late. It is the little things like this that make me appreciate my hubby every day. He does all sorts of little things that probably go unnoticed but which help our household to run smoothly. In the event that hubby may read this I want to take the opportunity to thank him. -Thank you hubby for all that you do. Even the little things mean the world to me! -
Now that I am finally adjusting to hubby's absence I can proudly say that I managed to get our trash to the curb on time for today's pick up. My secret? Last night I confirmed with hubby that today was trash day and took it out to the curb before I went to bed.
