First of all, I showed you our recycling situation, and it is what we've had for years! We always recycle a lot, so I just got more and more annoyed with all the space the paper bags took up.

This is what it looked like:

I took Jeanette's advice and bought recycling bins at IKEA! Here's what it looks like now. The whole booth area is free and clear and the dog's food and water moved over there, and the recycling is now by the garbage can in the corner by the fridge:

I love it!

Secondly, Cash Howard got really hyper randomly a few minutes ago so I decided to catch it on camera. I think I need to take him for a walk!

Enjoy!

Cash is a wild-man! Kia makes a loop around the living room and under the piano as fast as she can when she gets excited that there are more than two piano students in the room. It's difficult to teach a piano lesson under those conditions. ;-)

Yay!!

I'm glad you liked the idea of those recycling bins! I'd use them myself if we had to pre-sort ... I might get bins like that when we're kids so that our children can throw their various toys into them, or mittens and hats for winter or whatever...

Fantastic!
I love how the bins turned out! So neat and tidy!
Cash is too funny - I'm glad you thought to get a video of it! It was also a nice little tour of your house. I love it! :)

Nice idea with the bins!! I wish we had some place great to stick them like you do - it's such a great idea. I'll have to access the kitchen.
