I also think your headache came to me today. <br /><br />As for garbage, we moved from an apartment building that had no recycling and one big dumpster for the building. When we bought our house, we had our own bin, and no recycling container. Two weeks after moving in they changed it to needing the garbage can on wheels for the automatic trucks and recycling bins. We had to buy our own wheelie-carts, though. First recycling bin is free.<br /><br />I was thrilled! Wheeled cans are way easier for me to haul out to the curb. And actual recycling! Nice! My only complaint is the recycling containers don't have lids, and we live in the land of wind and snow for half the year. In the mornings, papers and bags and cans are up and down the streets when we have heavy winds overnight. Otherwise, I don't really see the fuss.<br /><br />Some people just like to complain, unfortunately, and don't realize it's an actual PERSON they're complaining to and not some machine.K.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07660760608080967978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096322373519494967.post-30907699106326018062009-10-05T03:01:03.255-08:002009-10-05T03:01:03.255-08:00Now come on those were honest questions on my part...Now come on those were honest questions on my part, Kellie. But your right about I was and am still good at pushing her buttons. Used to be I didn't realize I did it and now that I'm all grown up I try not to, but The dump/landfill is one I just can't help myself (my evil twin, Skippy, just comes out). I am publicly apoligizing to my sister. I truly hope that your headache goes away and God willing never comes back. I also think that recycling is a very good thing. I would be estatic if this is the real deal. That all the recyclable material would actually get to a center for use. Economically it has always cost more to get it to a center than what it would be worth and has always been a bait and switch by the powers that be in government. Patty I KNOW that you do not make these discisions, you just get to implement and deal with the aftermath and for that I applaud you. I would have a headache too. One of the reasons I am now retired. Got tired of trying to explain to coworkers and customers that change is good esspecially when it is mother earths health at stake.Jennynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096322373519494967.post-3054968690857425122009-10-04T04:44:17.920-08:002009-10-04T04:44:17.920-08:00Hey PAK, don't you just love older sisters. Th...Hey PAK, don't you just love older sisters. They sure know where to stick the knife in and how much to twist it. <br /><br />No trash service for me in rural WI. We do recycle cans, plastics, glass and all that up at our town hall. <br /><br />When we first moved here we lived in Eau Claire and they fined you and left your trash for you to sort if you didn't do it. We figured out how to sort real quick.Kelliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14363876851539226250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096322373519494967.post-71294276278766645432009-10-04T03:17:42.585-08:002009-10-04T03:17:42.585-08:001 I really do hope that your headache goes away t...1 I really do hope that your headache goes away today.<br /><br />2 I will not comment on the "new" way of doing things as you and I have never agreed about garbage lolololol <br />3 So is recycling really coming to Ak? Are they really going to barge it outta here at the rates charged for shipping or did a new business come to town ( or is it all still going to the land fill and this is what they call it so people feel good?) <br /><br />And finally hey how are you? Saw your sweetie the other day when I was hauling my trash to the dump even tho the MOA has that silly rule that I got to have your guys pick it up. After a week of sitting there they always only empty one can and the neighbors loose cats and dogs love it. I want you to know I really do love you when your cranky and I promise not to push anymore buttons. I just couldn't resist sorry You could call me sometime. Been busy remodeling my house and am making sure the MOA doesn't start fining me for have "junk" in my yard again. I actually think the can thing is good and I am real glad to know its happening cause I was going down to the local BIG can dealer Monday. My two little cans are about beat to death from being banged against the trashtruck. One of them you can't get a bag of garbage down in it if you opened up and poured it in' And I will look into getting a better (new?) trash can holder built. I've been tossing the idea around about just getting a dumpster cause we all know how much stuff I got to get rid of still. I promise I will only throw away the things I can't donate Love ya lots<br />MEJennynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096322373519494967.post-35740004879634723842009-10-03T18:13:40.706-08:002009-10-03T18:13:40.706-08:00It really is hard for people to change or to see t...It really is hard for people to change or to see the benefits that will help our world in the future. Our society lives on the "today" only mentality.<br /><br />I've lived in the countryside for 25 years. I'm so used to hauling our trash can down to the end of our long drive, that I dont' even think about it anymore. I just know that it's easier for the driver to pick it up on the edge of the highway.<br /><br />As for recycling, it's the only way our earth will stay clean and healthy. It's up to mankind to respect the earth and do your part in recycling. We've been recycling for years and years so we don't even think twice about it.<br /><br />I sure hope people in your city will except the changes, it's only for the good.tainterturtleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10307790480251741661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2096322373519494967.post-42887863520635186212009-10-03T13:25:11.130-08:002009-10-03T13:25:11.130-08:00I hope you feel better.
