One of the biggest things older homes like mine have is heat loss. First, we replaced some windows and also put plastic on the ones we didn't do this year. I set back the thermostat on my oil fired hot water heater as well, I still have hot water, but it is not using more oil to heat it with. I am going to be buying some other weatherization materials, such as caulking, weatherstripping and insulation and making it a fall project to weatherize my home. Eventually new windows and doors will come, as I can afford them. But in the meantime, this will help out and be more affordable. I work for energy services in a nonprofit agency.

I use newspaper for windows instead of papertowels. All homemade cleaning products. All organic cleasning items and food. CFL lights. Too many to list I am soooooooo green, be green with envy and live long and healthy. My family is down to one car now and waiting for our smart car.

My mom was re-painting her home office in ***Zero-VOC paint*** I had mentioned it to her, but never expected she'd actually buy it. The availability of zero-VOC at Home Depot definitely had something to do with it, no doubt, and the fact that she loved the soft blue paint I'd recently used in my own room that was zero VOC. And my Dad's house had organic milk & coffee! Wow! (Now if I can just get him to go solar...) Their homes have CFLs in them because I swapped the lightbulbs on visits over the years. My home has CFLs, recylced paper, biodegradable cleansers. I've actually used waterless car wash before, & really enjoy it! I was thinking it would be a great gift for family members at the holidays this year. I haven't tried Bayes brand, but would like to.

Wed, 01 Oct 2008 18:17:51 +0000 http://www.ecorazzi.com/?p=8931#comment-144614 People laugh at me all the time because I move in the dark. I use minimal light at night and just have always been that way. I don't really like the brightness of the lights so I don't miss it. That's my crazy side, I guess, lol. We also use our programmable thermostat all the time and it lowers the temp in the house by about 8 degrees at night in the winter which doesn't sound like much but has made a HUGE difference in our energy bills. Fortunately we sleep through it just fine. People laugh at me all the time because I move in the dark. I use minimal light at night and just have always been that way.

We bought energy efficient washers. We turn off the water while brushing and shaving. It is amazing how little we waste when we are just concious of our actions. We try our best to use what we have and recycle everything possible. :) We quit buying bottled water and made the switch to tap. We bought energy efficient washers.

We've stopped using paper towels and even sponges, and now use washable cloths for all cleaning (don't buy throw-away swiffer cloths, just wrap a washcloth around the swiffer head and use that!) and instead of napkins. I also keep spray bottles, vinegar, lemon juice and baking soda on hand for cleaning; I never have to worry about my cats getting high on the fumes of commercial cleaners now!
