Recycles dryer sheets
Well, I'm relaxing tonight after finishing the last leg of a two-day drive wrapping up a road trip with DW to upstate NY and MA. It was really nice seeing related family and old friends.
I was cleaning out a few things in the car and laughed at myself - I was actually taking out the unused Subway napkins with the idea of preserving them for later! We just finished a $3K road trip and are considering a $15K cruise to the Mediterranean in the fairly near future (blow that dough! ); yet here I am preserving napkins. I threw them away with a chuckle and wondered, "How many others are having a hard time letting go - even just a little - to that 'more than a little frugal mind set?'"
I'd love to hear from you about this. I'm not talking so much about things that are fairly logical (e.g., turning out lights behind you when leaving rooms) - some of these types of things may be a bit silly if we did otherwise. I'm talking about the ridiculous inconsistencies and things we do like saving napkins at this phase of our lives (we can sort of afford a few more napkins, right? ).
