Introductions are in order. I am a 27 year old full-time bartender/mixologist at a shmancy hotel in Southern Louisiana. My SO (signifigant other) is a 23 year old construction worker/musician who has managed to put up with me for 3 years now! We just bought our 1st house together and we are excited to begin our life together.
We share our home (and our bed) with our 2 dogs Major (dachshund) and Rufus (pound-puppy/Muppet) and one fat-formerly-stray cat, Carol.
So why this blog? Well, honestly it's mostly to keep me accountable. I also hope that some of yall out there in Internet world can learn from us/our mistakes. This is our "Little Green Home" for several reasons:
1) It's little. Only 1100 sqft. Now keep in mind this is not little by our standards. In fact we find it perfect. However we do realize (mostly through other's comments that we have already heard) that this is small for the standard 1st purchased home. But it has 3 bedrooms and a GREAT yard, is in a convenient location and is not new (new homes don't ever feel "homey" to me)
2) We are trying to be as "green" as possible in everyday life in regards to environmental responsibility. Using natural cleaners, growing our own veggies...I want chickens but the SO objects currently. We know that we don't have the money to go totally green, so we will be a "little green" by doing all we can.
and 3) We are trying to spend as "little green" as we can and save as much "green" as possible. Both everyday and with renovations to our new home. Luckily, being environmentally friendly and frugal usually go hand in hand.
So welcome! And thanks for being here!
