Trash Day

Tomorrow is trash day again.  I do look forward to trash day because it gives me a clean start for another week.  Last week I didn't put all my trash out the night before and that morning they went extra early.  Tonight I got all my trash to the curb already.

Last week the trash collection in the block above me was very late.  In fact, it didn't go till the next day.  I heard the sirens, and saw the ambulance and fire truck go up the street past my house but I didn't watch to see how far it went, or what was happening.  The next day, the headline news was that one of the trash collectors had gotten his leg stuck in the compactor.  It required the firemen to get him free from the mechanism and he was taken by ambulance to one of the Erie hospitals.  I haven't heard how he is, but I'm so in hopes that his leg is healing well and he'll be back to work soon.
