It's not easy being green

Last night I was going to detail some of the things we are doing in our new home to save energy and benefit the environment, and then I looked around and realized it was close to midnight and all the lights were on. So I turned off the lights, went to bed, and now I've forgotten how I was going to start.

So anyway I bought a few things from solutions.com last night for the house. You may have seen their pages in skymall magazine. These are a few of the things I bought - Each one of these items takes care of a pet peeve of mine.

#82938 HAND FREE PLATE (S/8) $7.99 (half open cans of coke all over the place after a party because no one knows which can belongs to who)

#81492 SOLAR BUGWACKER (S/4) $79.95 (why did God create mosquitos anyway?)

#62641 CHEMFREE BOWL CLEANER 2/$15.90 (no more blue toilet water - it looks and smells toxic)

#5202 BUHACH INSECT POWDER $12.00 (made from flowers and kills bugs. Dead. I really hate bugs. More than abandoned coke cans after a party.)

#61078 SPOT GONE $7.25 (a nontoxic stain and spot remover. We've only owned this house ONE WEEK. We've barely unpacked. The Baboo was in the new house ONE DAY. He found a crayon (I have no idea where it came from) and colored on the carpet. With a crayon.
