We got back from a week at a convention and had put all our dirty clothes
into black garbage bags. Had people here at the house watching the kids, and we just put the bags in the laundry room. Turned out the house sitters put them out for the garbage to pick up the next day. Didn't realize it till the next afternoon when I was ready to wash them. Lost all our custom made clothes! And the best we had. Took me a while to recover from that.
