Today's Question(s): Yesterday we talked bedrooms so today as suggested, today let find out about your garages !!!
Attached or not attached ? Attatched. How many cars is it "meant" to hold ? Two. How many here actually can fit a car in their garage ? Plenty of room for two cars....we only have one. What takes up the most space in your garage ? The car.....isnt that how its supposed to work. Next to that....the recyclables and trash.
(I am very acquainted with the garage space just now.....as I re-organized and cleaned it this past week. Last week one of the answers would have been empty cardboard moving boxes that have gathered garden tools, old plant pots, hoses and extention cords. That stuff has been taken to public works and to a roadside vender where I get some of my plants and some stuff (shop vac etc.) to my basement. )
Bonus Question:
With Monday being a Holiday, did this change your trash pick up day this week ?
No.
How many forgot or weren't aware and put their trash out anyway ?
The dogs just came and told me that the men in the big truck are stealing our stuff again.

Attached or not attached ? Attached
How many cars is it "meant" to hold ? Two
How many here actually can fit a car in their garage ? We can but it has to be the right combination: our Pathfinder plus one of the small cars, and you have to be careful about opening the doors or else you'll ding the car next to you. The stupid garage should have been about a foot wider to be ideal.
What takes up the most space in your garage ? The cars. At this point, we have four cars but are trying to sell one. Even if we finally sell the 4th car, the garage would still be taken up with two cars. The other one is outside. That's life, with 20-something kids living at home.
Bonus Question:
With Monday being a Holiday, did this change your trash pick up day this week ? Wasn't a holiday here in Oz, so rubbish-pickup day was still Monday. Only time they don't pick up rubbish here is if Christmas falls on a Monday.
How many forgot or weren't aware and put their trash out anyway ? We never forget. We only get one bin's worth of rubbish a week, so you don't want to forget!
