My new compost bin completely fell apart after only two months in the backyard.

The plastic latches snapped during a windy night in April, so now I'm looking for a sturdier model that can handle the weather, any suggestions?

Are you really that upset about a compost bin? @mark_ward might be onto something. It's plastic, it broke, you get another one. I've had the same metal bin from a hardware store for like 8 years now zero issues. You're making it sound like your whole garden got wrecked.

Seriously? It's just a compost bin.

Guess my life's that boring now.

Oh man, gray_morgan, I totally get that feeling! I went through a phase where everything felt super dull and routine. What helped me was picking one tiny new thing to learn about each week, like how to fix a leaky faucet or the history of my street name. It sounds silly, but those little bits of new info made daily stuff way more interesting. It's not a big fix, but it helped me see my own surroundings differently.
