Tonya Daniels, a single mother of two, helped build the HabiJax home. She put 300-hours of sweat equity into it and now it's finished. <br /> <br /> "It feels great. I have never been so happy in my life. This has been the biggest accomplishment of my life besides having my children," said Daniels. <br /> <br /> Daniels is the new owner of the HabiJax home and it is the first green house by Habitat for Humanity in Jacksonville. <br /> <br /> "This house is deed certified. It's our first among many to go after this so we're excited about it for many different reasons," said Roger Cortie with HabiJax. <br /> <br /> The new home is good for the environment since it's more energy efficient and good for the new owner. <br /> <br /> "It's an energy efficient home which will help me as far as cost of lights and water," said Daniels. "My bill will be a lot less." <br /> <br /> This is not only the first of seven green houses for HabiJax, but this house was built by women. <br /> <br /> Women Build sponsored the house. <br /> <br /> Groups of women from all over the city came together to build this for a woman, wanting to fulfill a dream and now she has. "This is my first house and I thank God for it. It's a good feeling. A great feeling." </td> </tr> </table> </body> </html>
