Recycling

It just dawned on me yesterday, that my mother was a woman before her time. She recycled long ago.
Pepsi bottles!
Every Saturday she would buy a six pack of Pepsi in bottles (that was the only way they came) and thru-out the week, she would have one in the afternoon....sometimes she'd share one with a friend (these were 12oz bottles)....we never got a Pepsi, because "they were not for kids".
Then the next Saturday, she would take the empty bottles back to the store and return them and buy her new bottles.

Whatever happened to that? I know, I know, they "used" to charge for the bottles AND they used to reuse the bottles (which they don't do anymore---they used to wash them and reuse them, but now they have to actually "be" recycled, which costs more )
We recycled our milk bottles too.... we went to Thomson's or Thomalson's dairy. It was a drive thru dairy, like a fast food joint. You drove up and handed them your used milk bottles (they were glass) and told them what you wanted; more milk, butter, cream, eggs, etc. and they handed it out the little "drive thru" window.
In Rich's family they recycled too, I think. They had a "milk man" who came to their house every morning early and picked up their used glass milk bottles and left new ones.

I didn't mean for this to get nostalgic, it's just that our mothers were women before their time!!
They were green when green was unheard of.
LOL
Thanks Moms.

He gripped Tykirs hip, lest they both topple from the strength of his thrusts. Salin had accepted that from the time hed first seen his brother as a babe. His hands at her waist steadied her as he obediently scooted forward in the chair. Radins mental warning didnt help. Someone was there to help her. Her accustomed method of casting, she would likely have caused a worse cavein. She shook her head. She looked to Eyrhaen as Hyle sat up, guarded hope in her eyes. Eyrhaens here, he announced quietly to the room, waving for her to pass by him. The fact that I wasnt in control of my magic only made things worse. Its going to make you lightheaded. She startled badly when hands closed over her shoulders from behind. Lanthans grip eased on her wrists, only to be replaced by Tykirs hold. Three sets of eyes focused on her as Tykirs cock hovered at her pussy. She barely heard Lanthans cry, somewhat felt his thrusts. He dragged open his eyes. Polite isnt a description Ive often heard for you. That would have been wonderful. I only want to be with you, Nialdlye. Ive an armful of the most precious woman in the world.

She let her gaze trail slowly up the smooth, bare skin of his legs. His face was devoid of its former markings, the skin smooth and black and unblemished. Is the casting of this spell anything like the one that changes women to raedjour? The information had been followed by a lecture from Irin on how selfish she was. Little by little, she came back to herself.
