Can I recommend a small trash can beside where you check the mail?

That has made a giant difference in paper piles.

Now I don't even have a kitchen trash can. I just use grocery sacks. Generally one per day or every two days. Take it out every day.
I don't know if you could do that as I don't know your trash set up.

And why did the mutt fart and run? Or more precisely just get off the couch.
