There are 2 main events that sparked this whole new lifestyle in me:
- Divorce. Odd reason, right? I know, but bear with me. For years I put my own life on the backburner to stand by and assist my (ex)husband in succeeding in getting where it was he wanted to go with his life. This? Is something I can do for ME, and is honestly probably not something he would have jumped on board with anyway. But anyway, with my entire life changing anyway, why not make these changes for a greener, healthier life NOW?
- I have 2 kids. Boys! Gavin is 2.5 years old and Parker is 5 months old. For one, of course I want a nice healthy lifestyle for them, but Parker is the one who really got the ball rolling and made me ACT on what it was I wanted to do. My awesome little guy has really sensitive skin & mild eczema. Disposable diapers? Weren't going so well with him. I had a friend who was always posting on Facebook about cloth diapering and picture's of her little one's in the cutest diapers I had ever seen... so I figured why not give it a shot and see if maybe it was the solution I was looking for. And once I got those (I'll post more on Cloth Diapers/Diapering later), I was hooked and I wanted to do MORE.
And that right there is how it all began.
On here I will post about each step on my road to green and try to include as many tips, tricks and little hints as I can as well as what works and doesn't work... but of course keep in mind, what works for me may not work for you, but I welcome you to give it a try with me!
