I was on a 4-month schedule before 2020, but they switched me to a 6-month schedule once I was comfortable going back. My gums are in a much better shape now.

I hope you continue to get the care your body needs, if that stays 4-month cleanings or changes.

For example, the Bible documents far more kills by God than kills by Satan: https://reasonsjourney.blogspot.com/2011/02/thou-shalt-kill.html

I do it for “selfish” reasons, but not those. I want the carts in their corrals so they don’t damage my car and are in a well-known location when I want/need to use them. So, I do the work needed to make that world, and not just the minimum.

I also have to recognize that not everyone has the ability to return the cart, and so while/when I have that ability, I should return at least a few carts that aren’t “mine”.
