Cutting Water Bottles Out of Our Lives

[mlmooney89]

Also toward the end of my first marriage I realized I didn't like my husband anymore because of bags. We were stationed in Wichita Falls and it was long before there were bans on plastic but I thought the idea of a reusable canvas was awesome so I insisted on using them. In Wal-Mart one day the cashier is complaining about my bags saying they are cumbersome and she didn't think they were a good idea she wished people didn't use them. Instead of letting it just go, letting me reply, or defending me my dick of a husband agrees with her and they both proceed to trash talk canvas bags and the tree huggers that use them aka me standing right there. And yet when I left his ass not even five months later he was surprised.

I got so good at recycling that a box of 86 trash bags lasted me nearly four years in my home town. My ex hated my recycling craze. Now in an apartment it's a bit harder to recycle but I recycle what I can. My husband now didn't care about recycling but he knew I did so like a real supporting husband he started to. Now he does it just because.
