I sure do know the feeling, esp. now with twins and a toddler like you! I've taken on the task of going through each room and eliminating/organizing this summer. Everyone thinks I'm crazy, but I NEED to be organized. Finding the time to do it is a challenge, esp. with so many DIY projects we have to do too. But I guess that's how it goes...there will always be projects. Congrats on your success!Wisconsin Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02126902969299740691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-89881474470149443252010-07-20T04:53:39.169+02:002010-07-20T04:53:39.169+02:00First...I am sorry for the cold winter.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. <br />Second...Really cool recycling bins...we have one for our aluminum, but that is it. We are horrible, but plan to join the recycling fad real soon! The bins are awesome, but I have to ask...are they very big? <br />Third...can I just say you have a super adorable family! I love your pictures of the kids...SUPER GREAT!!Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00123895145487170483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-68394281288608833132010-07-20T04:30:33.496+02:002010-07-20T04:30:33.496+02:00You know Cat, when it is SWELTERING here as it is,...You know Cat, when it is SWELTERING here as it is, I often think of you all experiencing opposite seasonal impact.

Don't know that particular heater, but you will sometimes find porch heaters at restaurants when it gets cold for the folks that want to eat outside but don't enjoy the cold food! On the East coast almost all houses have central air of course because the weather would make it unbearable to do without! I did not realize how spoiled we were living in Cape Town until we moved to the US.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-22518697202491845692010-07-19T23:08:58.024+02:002010-07-19T23:08:58.024+02:00I am so impressed with your recycling containers!I am so impressed with your recycling containers!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00111625953496244923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-39376841195784573972010-07-19T18:38:25.220+02:002010-07-19T18:38:25.220+02:00Love the recycling containers.

Need to get in gear though - we want to repaint our living room and need to tear out a wall and re-drywall first!<br /><br />I like your recycling containers. We have a big bin where it all goes under our kitchen counter. IT fills up fast.<br /><br />I never even thought about you not having heat!

Do you have Mondi where you live? They collect (for free) in our neck of the woods and it is fantastic. The amount of paper, cardboard, etc. we collect in a week (and I'm virtually paperless) is frightening.<br /><br />I need to start being good with glass (those purity bottles and I only buy prunes!
