one of the greates things that i love about practicing being "green" is the idea of renew, reuse, recycle. i love giving something to someone who will use it and enjoy it. that is so cool. you know the expression "one person's junk is another person's treasure". well tonight i hit the jackpot!
let me set the stage. today i cleaned my apartment and began reorganizing furniture. before i knew it i had a bag of goods to donate. but this was also a dilemma. i had to teach 430 yoga class so no time to make donations today. well, i threw caution to the wind and filled up my car anyway hoping i'd figure it out when i was done at 7pm. thankfully, i remembered a donation truck down in the marina. yes, it would be closed but maybe they wouldn't mind if i left a few things. i was a little nervous as many places have posted signs that you can't leave items after hours. but much to my relief people, i saw many items already outside the donation truck. i was in. now here comes the good stuff. i unloaded my car...which i love AND i found some items to take home. i am always keeping my eye out for things that might help organize my clients. if i can find them things they can use for free...that is just the best! i scored big time...storage bins, laundry bin, arts and crafts container...really good stuff.
i think this is going to be part of my specialty...how to best "renew, reuse and recycle". whether it is passing along items from one client to the next, or finding gems in a recycling center. it is all good. pretty cool right?
