I realised this when I was talking to Rudulf yesterday, just how much stuff K & M left behind.

I have a green top SULO bin, and a yellow top SULO bin. The green is for general garbage and the yellow for recycled stuff. I pretty much stopped using the yellow bin while K &M were here. I have a green crate in the kitchen for recycled stuff (paper, cardboard, drink contains et cetera) but removed it because K & M would just use it as an "overflow" box for the kitchen rubbish bin. They thought it was a joke when I got upset over that, but I was the mug who had to sort out that stuff for the yello bin, which had two internal divisions (one for paper/cardboard, one for everything else). How are plastic bags and single slice cheese wrappers recyclable?

Anyway, after they went I brought my recycle crate back in and have been using it (and the bin) again. It does make a difference. But for the last three garbage pick-up days (always Thursday morning here) the green bin has been 75-80% full of their crap! Lots of stuff pre-bagged in black bags. Other stuff was just left lying about, like all the used hair product bottles in the bathroom, or the dope pipe I found in the bedroom.

At least after tomorrow I'll have some usable space in the green bin for further cleanup. haven't even touched anything in the backyard yet!

I hope to get out and go shopping early today. Apart from a real need for food (mostly minor stuff, but I was broke until today) I'll be buying some more flea bombs. Fleabombed the house a few months ago, but after the hot hot days of last week, they've become really active down my end, where the carpeting is. I have vacuumed but it doesn't seem enough, so some more flea bombing - today if I have the time.

The beauty of not having anyone down the other end, is that I can retreat down there while bombing my end. If I move my stuff down there as well, I can just hook up to my internal network and the net as well. Handy having a door between my lounge and kitchen.
