I just had a burning trash can in my house
We have a little trash can kept by the coffee table, mainly used as a receptacle for emptying ashtrays and depositing tissues, since we all have allergies and sinus issues. Just as I logged on to DU, I glanced into the living room and saw quite the plume of smoke. The trash can was taken outside and doused with water, and the fan on the stove is on, sucking the smoke out of the house before I have an asthma attack.

1. Well, you have had a exciting night, good thing you looked over
and saw the trash can.

Glad the fire is out, and everyone is safe.

2. Never a dull moment around here
I'd open the windows, but it's so damn sticky outside that we would all drown in our own sweat.

3. Just think, it is still early in summer season, it will only get hotter.
My father burned a pot, feel asleep making beans. The smoke and smell was terrible.
