14:59 Jul 20, 2021
'We\'ve moved into our eco-friendly home! Just had to get that out there.  I\'m a little behind in posting about the process, but I\'ve decided that\'s okay. Life is already busy when you\'re not building a house. You add that part in and - well - what\'s the word for a hundred steps past busy?  I am wordless because I am a big ball of emotions. Grateful. Excited. Overwhelmed. Exhausted.  But that\'s now. Want to know how I got here? Check out episode six, where I show you our installed solar panels (finally!!!) and share the two days we\'ve all been waiting for - possession day and moving day. Plus, you get a full house tour featuring some of my sustainable faves!
