RTBTCKI The Paper Recycling Day Edition
Jun. 24th, 2015 08:33 amRTBTCKI stands for Random Thoughts before the Coffee Kicks In for our newer readers.
It uses to be here in the village that Wednesday was recycling day. You separated your paper and plastics into two bins and they picked it up. A couple of years ago we went to a ‘plastics one week and paper the next week’ system which means that it is two weeks between pick-ups.
This house generates a lot of paper for various reasons. This morning I put out a lot of boxes and things for recycling. The pile was bigger than usual because I finally got the left over paper for recycling from the winter because of the snow. It is a lovely pile but it is out of my basement too.
That means tomorrow is trash day and all the moving around of trash cans and the like to get that to the curb.
It also means that today will be litter box day for the cats.
There is also the issue of no fresh food in the house so I have to go food shopping and will bring Caroline with me because she wants to learn how to pick out good fruits and vegetable.
Yesterday Peter and Caroline went off together to see a movie and have lunch for a Daddy/Daughter day since she is now out of School. While they were gone, I tackled two of the six corners of the living room.
Speaking of Caroline, I am very proud of her. She was picked as one of the student’s of the month for her academic and civic achievements. I am one lucky mother with such a clever and kind girl.
This weekend Caroline is going to be going to a Relay for Life events with her best friend. She is excited for it and seeing her friend.
It’s another weekend where we are all not home.
I think next weekend will be the first weekend we are all home at the same time in about two and a half months. We will be home the following weekend and then Caroline will be off to Florida to spend some time with Shana. I will be flying down to get her and go spend time with my parents, brothers, sister, wives, and nieces.
It has been a busy year.
Inky’s meow is no longer at its kitten pitch. It still happens at times but we are also hearing her adult meow now. She still has the really bad habit of knocking stuff off of flat surfaces to the floor.
The Mets lost to the Brewers the second worse team in baseball. And the Yankees lost to the Phillies who are the worst team in baseball this year. Hate seeing the Mets take such a slide before the All Star Break. They had been doing so well.
I am grateful to get all that paper out of our basement.
