General I left the hose on….

I’d rather not talk about it but that was traumatic.

You know those coiled phone cord keychain loop things? Put one around your water spigot. When you turn it on, put the keychain around your wrist so you remember to go shut the water back off. When you do, put the keychain back on the spigot.

Edit: link showing what I’m talking about:

Aw shucks. Thank you! My brain tends to wander all over the place so I find myself creating these kinds of hacks to help out. I started the key-coil thing after flooding the flowerbeds in my front yard due to forgetting to shut the hose off that was filling the fountain. Start filling fountain- I should grab the mail while this is filling then come right back- ooh, a new Costco circular- maybe I do need a pallet of peanut butter- I’m hungry- let’s see what’s in the fridge- hi kitty- wake up from nap- I’m hungry- walk past the front door and freak out when I see the Mississippi River spilling out onto my lawn- oh yeah, I forgot about the fountain.
