I thought I would write about RECYCLING. I am really into saving the planet. I have this guilty feeling when things are thrown away instead of being recycled. I can't stand going to a park or a public place and seeing TRASH cans everywhere and NO RECYCLING cans!!!
When we moved to Leland I stopped recycling because I wasn't sure of where a recycling center was. Then I found one a few years later, less than 1/2 a mile down the road from my house!!! I was very happy to find this jewel. I was, however, disappointed to see that this recycling center only accepted plastics numbered 1 & 2. I don't understand!!! I see recycling signs on a lot of the plastics used in my home numbered 1-7!!! So 3-7 is going in the dump at my house. For years I had this guilt of not recycling to my fullest potential!!! Then we moved, yet again, and guess what, PEOPLE.... there is a cooler, better, recycling center right up the road from my house!!! WOO HOO. And the most awesome thing, you may ask... They accept numbers 1-6 in plastic!!! My dream is now a reality. When I discovered that they accept plastics 1-6 I went home trying to find plastics 3-6. A weight has been lifted ya'll.
