Uh-oh...
I have occasionally teased ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
greydora about turning into our grandmother*, particularly when she does things like packing the cardboard box from her microwave mac-n-cheese into her suitcase to take home & recycle.
Today when I went downstairs to start a load of laundry, I noticed that the dehumidifier was full. And so, rather than dumping all that water down the sink, I dumped it into the washing machine (since I wash on cold anyway). And then it occurred to me that that was a very Grandma thing to do.**
*Our grandmother who spent our family vacation last year squirreling away cookies and sandwiches and various other foodstuffs in her dresser drawers, which were ultimately confiscated by the cleaning staff because critters were getting into her room. Our grandmother who woke both greydora and me up at ungodly early hours of the morning washing out plastic bags when the three of us were sharing an apartment at Kibbutz Gat while there visiting our uncle and his family, probably 9 years ago now.
**Grandma who does things like collect the runoff from her roof and use it to water her indoor plants, or to flush toilets. That said, she does live in LA so there's SOME logic there
