I have a huge mess to clean up.
For those of you who didn't live through the era of video cassette tapes, count yourselves lucky. These days, if I were to buy? a movie, it would be a download.
But for 20 years we collected movies on vhs cassette tapes. We loved old movies.
Now I'm paying for it. In lack of space, in overwhelm, in wtf am I going to do with all these stinking video tapes that no one wants. I couldn't give 'em away.
And speaking of paying for it, I will be...literally.
For the last two years, I've been trying to find a place to recycle my tapes. I'm going to have to face facts. There is a place that will take them, but it's going to cost me. About $200.00, if my calculations are correct.
Somehow, I'm OK with that. When I researched this subject, it became evident that GreenDisk was the only solution. Literally. No one else does what they do. They take techno trash and recycle it.
Let GreenDisk safely and securely destroy your old data, recover reusable components, and recycle all the rest of your accumulated technotrash...
So even though it's going to cost me to do this, it seems like a small price to pay for peace of mind. Peace of mind means, I no longer have to think about it, and I know it's being handled responsibly, not just dumped into a landfill or the ocean.
And when I think about that stuff being gone, my body relaxes and I feel the stress draining away. I have been sitting on this "stuff" for years, because I haven't known how to dispose of it responsibly. It's time to move on and be done with it. I'm tired of being a slave to this plastic trash. Feeding it with my anxiety while it takes up space in my life.
I'll post more about this, as I go through the process.
That's all for day 12.
