Well, that was embarrassing... [View all]

Our first meeting at my new retirement village!

It's been a couple of weeks since we moved in and all was going well smoothly until...

we newbies met in one of the meeting rooms to receive info on variety of subjects. One was WHAT IS/IS NOT RECYCLABLE.

They held up examples of what was recently thrown away IMPROPERLY.

All three items were MINE.

Getting off to a good start here, I guess.
