New Day #201

One of the great gifts of this project has been to take pleasure in life's minutiae. Like my new recycling bin. I love it. No, I feel stronger than that. I'm in love with it. I've been thinking about it all week, looking forward to each time I can put anything in it, and waiting for that magic moment when I could finally put it out on my curb.

Why? Because I no longer have to separate my recyclables. For reasons I don't completely understand, this makes me deliriously, unreasonably happy.

Simple pleasures.

PS Here's the before and after from yesterday's eyebrow tint. Is it a coincidence that Floyd's eyes and my new recycling bin are both blue? You decide.
