Every morning I leave my apartment safe in the knowledge that if it burns down, it won’t be my fault.
I know that my hair straightener is unplugged and safe in it’s little heat-proof bag, that the knobs on my stove are all turned to ‘off’, and that my heater has definitely been switched off at the wall.
I know this because I have the photos to prove it.
After years of second-guessing whether I’ve left my hair straightener on, and panicking that I’ve accidentally bumped the stove with my hip and inadvertently turned on a burner – I’ve started taking photos of these things switched off just before I leave the house.
