This is recyclable day in my neighborhood. This morning I carried three recyclable bins to the curb. Because I missed taking the recyclables out two weeks ago, I had two containers of newspapers. Those were the heaviest and after I finished lugging them to to curb the osteoarthritis in my knees began acting up. I ignored the pain and carried the recyclable bin containing cans and plastic items.
After I came back into the house, I had to fix something to eat so that I could take a pain pill. I take prescription pain medication and I cannot take the tablets without eating. The pain has subsided, but I am stiff and it is difficult to walk. I think I had better start accepting my physical limitations, but I do not want to give up recycling. I take out the recyclables again in two weeks, but I will not have as many newspapers.

Recyclable Saturday: Taking the Recyclable Bins to the curb

It's recyclable Saturday. It's time to put the plastic recyclable bins on the curb, which I did about thirty minutes ago. I have a unique method of taking the bins to down to the street. I have a black plastic rolling trashcan, so, on recyclable Saturday, I remove the lid from my trashcan and place a red, white, or blue bin inside.
I roll the trashcan down to the curb and remove the recyclable bin. I then roll the trashcan back to the garage, put another recyclable bin in and roll the trashcan containing the recyclable back down to the curb. I do this until I have all the bins on the curb, sometimes it takes two trips and sometimes three.
I use this method because I can't carry the bins without assistance. Since I don't have anyone to help me, this is the best method to accomplish the job. I have to get the recyclables to the curb before 6:00 A.M. because sometimes the recyclable truck begins its run early.
