So, like every project, sometimes you win, sometimes you fail, sometimes you don’t eve try. This past month, my February ‘thing’ was recycling (I know I said that it would be another thing, but I’m leaving that one for later in the month). I do recycle glass bottles, but I tend not to recycle anything else (unless I’m at the office, where I also recycle paper and cans), so I decided to mend my ways, and start recycling as much as I could.
And it was going pretty well, I must add, till my boyfriend got tired of the pile of plastics, cans, papers, etc I was leaving in the kitchen… see, I don’t have (I haven’t bought really) different boxes were to put everything away, so I just left it on top of the freezer. And it was a pile of crap (literally…). So the boy got tired, and binned it all. So, technically, his fault! I failed because of him (can we just blame someone else for this?). He did say he would get me some boxes, and I’m still waiting… so, technically (again), I’m still failing at this chore because of him. It feels good to pretend that your fail has nothing to do with yourself, but with someone else, even if we all know that this is not the case…
I will go to Ikea and buy some plastic boxes were to divide the recycling… sigh. And even if I was failed the February project, I will make up to it by recycling more often from now on. On the good news side of things, thanks to the January project I don’t eat as many packets of crisps as I used to, and normally only do it on the three days a week I spend at the office (where munching away makes the time go faster). So hurray me! (well, January hurray, February booo). March project, here I come! Will let you know soon what it is.
Dude… it’s already the 11th… tut tut
