I have picked up a new hobby and one that my husband does not approve of. I drive through my neighborhood on trash day and see what there is for the taking. A couple of weeks ago I scored this for Madeline. It was in perfect condition! How could he not see the value in this?
Today I grabbed this rolling storage cart. I had been thinking about getting one, but the high price did not appeal to me. Free speaks to me though. I think Madeline was a little embarrassed when I jumped out of the car in my pjs and grabbed the cart and begged me not to "steal" it from our neighbors. I explained the whole reduce, reuse, recycle mentality and how I was participating. I really do not need more storage for laundry items, but I think that I can repurpose this.
I am constantly amazed at the stuff people throw away, instead of donating. I am more than happy to "save" it from the trash pile. If I cannot use it,repurpose it or know someone that can,then I will do it justice and donate it. I made my mom hop out this morning and save a huge frame to repurpose.
