I was going to say being susceptible to interruptions isn't just an ADHD thing but I forget I am AuDHD sometimes lol.
I keep trying to build a good morning routine but then garbage day happens and it's lost for the week lmao.
This is why garbage is a two person job! My husband takes the garbage to the can, and the night before, I take the can out! So I can sleep to whatever time. Cause the garbage people either pick it up at fuck early o'clock, or not until the afternoon. No one here is trying to guess, entire street puts it out the day/night before.
Oh yeah I live in the country, it would be a disaster if I did that 😬
We live in the country, and it turns out great that we don't have garbage pickup, because we also have fantastic and nearly complete recycling through a community facility that separates everything... batteries here, cream containers there, corks in this bin, foam there, electronics talk to that gal. Plus we compost or bury everything organic.
It means we pay $7 for a bag of garbage and we have to drop it off near the grocery store, but we only have one black bag every six weeks or so for a household of four.
We have curb side recycling and organics pickup (although I compost most of it at home) and they will fuck up the recycling for fun or if there is even the slightest amount of residue. I rinse out soda cans :(
Yeah we have no pickup at all so we have to take it to recycling as an errand. We the people do all the sorting there, so we have a cupboard in the carport with several blue bins and we do a big run on a Saturday usually. It's close to the village so on the errand route.
It's pretty close to a true Transition model, and evolving for the better, so I am pretty proud of it. It's truly community oriented, with a decently large free library of books and magazines, and decent jobs, and ready for the rest of the world to catch up.
The true cost of waste is always in our faces, so we wind up pretty careful about consumption.
Danged critters! Yeah, we're...close enough to suburbs that things don't go trash picking here. We're near the pine barrens, but not quite enough.
