I'm still "Hangin Tuff"

Tonight I got a call at 6:00pm from a good friend telling me that her friend had 2 extra tickets to the New Kids on the Block concert and if I wanted to go. Ben was a saint and not only watch Charley, but Liz's kids as well so she could come! The show started at 8pm, so we got fixed up, and headed up to SLC! Natasha Beningfield was the opening act...I was actually really happy to see her as well, I really like her.

We had great seats....18 rows up, right next to the stage....I could see the group perfectly! It was a 2 hour show, and they sang EVERYTHING....all of their old and new songs. I was so happy I was able to remember all of the words!

It was a great night!

I only had my camera phone, and I tried to take videos of the concert but since my camera phone doesn't do the best indoors, plus with all the crazy lights, it just looks like a big light blurb. But if you listen closely you can hear some of the song behind the screaming fans!...enjoy....you know you all were jealous! :)....you all secretly used to love NKOTB!! I am not ashamed to admit that I had the works....the dolls, the night gowns, the posters...

Frustrated!!!!

Ben and I buy a lot of bottles of water. It is really cheap to get them at Costco. After a few months, I noticed that our trash had a lot of empty plastic bottles in it, and I started to feel really bad. I decided that I would start saving the plastic bottles and eventually take them to a recycling center. I was really excited and felt good about doing something good!

After two months we filled 2 trash bags with empty bottles. So I looked on-line for the nearest recycling center. I got the address and phone number, called to make sure they accepted plastic and went on my way to drop off my load. When I got to the address listed they said that they only took recyclables at their drop off site (would have been helpful to know over the phone, but oh well...it was only a few blocks away). I go to the site they said and there was a big sign that said "Metal Only". So I asked, and sure enough...they only took metal.

I went home and found another place on-line and when I went to take it there....I couldn't find it. I drove around for 40 minutes trying to find it. I found the address where it was supposed to be, but no building?!!!! ARRGGGGG!!!

My neighbor finally took the bags with her to SLC when she visited her parents and set it out with their recyclables. But in the mean time....we accumulated 2 more bags of plastic bottles....

Okay...so 3rd times a charm....I looked up BYU's recycling, but they only took paper and aluminum cans...but they had a link to a place here in Provo where they took plastic....so I went and there was NO BUILDING!!!!....are you kidding me. It was an empty lot. And there was no phone number, so I couldn't call! So FRUSTRATING...I am just trying to be good, and it is all back firing. I was so mad that I saw a dumpster and just threw the bags in. I felt bad, but I was just so mad!

So if you know of a real place where I can take my plastic bottles, please let me know....otherwise I may just end up throwing my bottles away again!
