Each month I get an email from the electric company that details how much
electricity we've used during the month. The statement also includes a nice graphic breakdown of our usage.
This bill will be up 45% from the last one, which is frustrating but predictable. Our cycle runs from the middle of one month to the middle of the next, and included June's record setting highs and July's normal heat.
The hot weather doesn't go away until after Labor Day, but with any luck there won't be any stratospheric temperatures and the next one will be incrementally smaller. After that the total bill should take a nice nosedive.

Come on now. Shouldn't our bills be twice as high so the upper management at the electric company can get bigger bonuses for the great job they're doing? … BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
ReplyDeleteIn my world, the executives at the electric company should take a pay CUT :-)
DeleteWow. That is really clear information! Good feedback, too.

The graphic really puts things into perspective for me.
DeleteAt least you know what is what, from your bill.
ReplyDeleteGood to know from the bill.
ReplyDeleteSince we moved to a much smaller, one level house our heating and cooling bills have been much more manageable. High electricity and low gas bills in the summer, high gas bills and low electricity bills in the winter. Best is the spring and fall when we use very little of each!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like we could be living in the same house!
DeleteI know our electricity and water bill will be sky high for June because our daughter and family were here visiting.
ReplyDeleteHow do they know what appliances are using how much??
