The weirdest thought crossed my mind while listening to the radio last week. I wonder if all the logical sentences in the English language have been spoken already and we're all just repeating stuff that someone else has said in the past. I know, it's weird but remember my drive into work is a little monotonous - you have to find something to pass the time!
Let's talk about the weather we've had so far in the month of June! C'mon! Where the heck is summer?!! I am wearing socks, a long sleeved t-shirt, jeans and a hoodie - in the house! We refuse to turn on the furnace; it's a matter of principle! I tried warming up this afternoon by baking banana bread. I figured if I hung out around a 350-degree oven that I may feel cozy again! I'm so glad we spent money on flowers! I can see them fighting with all they've got! Which isn't a whole lot since they really haven't had a fighting chance this year! C'mon!
Bruce and I loaded up the Escape with lots of stuff we've been storing in our basement for the past six years and took it to the Big Bin Event held by the city. They take everything except hazardous materials (e.g., paint and chemicals) for free. All you have to do is, well bring your unwanted stuff to the set location - there was a list in the Examiner a couple months back - wait in line (it's open from 9-5 but we didn't get there until 11 and we waited about 25 minutes), back up to the next available trash bin and unload your stuff. They had people there helping you unload and it was super organized! There was an area for tvs, one for computer monitors, one for printers, a place for fridges, and one for electrical appliances. Whatever doesn't sort into those categories goes in a big bin. Once a bin is full, it's loaded onto a truck and hauled away. All for free! I think that's a fabulous idea. And I feel so much lighter getting that stuff out of the house!
I'm off to make some dinner and plan the menu for this week! Wish me luck!
