- What did you last replace batteries for?
- What have you thrown away that you probably could have had repaired?
- Among items in your line of sight right now, what should probably be put in the trash?
- When did you last use disposable cutlery while dining in your house?
- Whose actions cause you to waste time you otherwise wouldn’t waste?
1. I use rechargable as much as possible. Most of the things in my house are now on rechargable batteries. I think the last thing was for a remote, probably the tuner.
2. I’m sure there’s something out there I could have had repaired. Nothing that I can think of right now, though.
3. I’ve got a lot of books, magazines and cookbooks in my line of sight. I LOVE cookbooks and I like to keep books so I’m sure some of those magazines can go in the trash–but not just yet. I’m not quite done with them yet.
4. I NEVER use disposable cutlery in my own house. I’ve gone for take-out and if they give me disposable stuff, I keep it to take to work or have around. In my own house, I much prefer the “silver.”
5. Whose actions cause me to waste time I wouldn’t otherwise waste? That’s a weird question. … There was a woman I worked with last year who talked and talked and talked, often about nothing that was of relevance to me. That’d be one. Strangers–people in line who take too much time, people in the store who take up space? I don’t know… this is an odd question.
