THIRD FANTASTIC DAY IN A ROW!
Tonight, I headed over to Archwood & Arlington. It took five hot days to clean this area the last time. I did it all in one night! Yay!
That's three nights that used to take 14 days to clean! I call that serious progress!
The first thing I found was car parts. Oh, I hate picking up car parts, especially really big ones that I have to carry around with me for the next hour. Not only does it look stupid, but I keep banging into big things like this.
Look closely. From the road, you can't see much. Walking by on the sidewalk, you can see there's trash in the bushes.
But if I pull all the trash out of these pushes and leave it there . . .
Yes, all this came out of two bushes. And all the bushes on this corner were like this.
WRONG! It takes from 9 months to 10 years for one cigarette butt to biodegrade!
I didn't used to pick them up, because they are so little, but after I learned how dangerous they are to the environment, I started picking them up.
They aren't as hard to pick up as glass, but almost.
Shame on whoever does this!
Seriously? You throw trash all over the ground, but you put your mattress in the trash can so there's no room for trash?
The world is totally screwed up.
Thank goodness I found them before the landscaping crew found them. Picking broken glass out of the grass is really hard.
Who put it there and why they put it there is yet another mystery, but I couldn't throw it in the dumpster. It's brand new.
I picked up 2,745 pieces of trash tonight and kept on going when my phone alarm went off.
I was feeling discouraged last week, but now I'm feeling EXCITED again!
I'm doing this!
Wow! I thought trash and a new bottle of wine! Almost seems like someone left it there for you 😊
