I try to turn off lights when not in use but don't really worry about it - don't turn off the tv at the wall.

House is about 40 sq.

I had a house guest last year and she doubled our power on her own! clothes dryer and water mostly. 20 min showers three times a day! (obsessive compulsive)
Of course the house guest offered to pay the excess electicity

Something happened to my Gas bill. I got one for $45 this quarter,normally $90. I have never had a gas bill before. It is was normally in another persons name who got a pensioner's discount. I had a bloke come around from the gas co last month and he said I should be on the bill and get my pensioner discount too. I hope this means we get two pensioner discounts and the bill is cut by 50% every quarter.
