Still No Heat!

October 19th, 2008 at 05:41 pm

We still have not had to turn on the heat, but the month has been unseasonably warm. However, we have had a few cold days but I have resisted turning on the heat. Yesterday I received our PG&E gas/electric bill and was pleasantly surprised:

October (30 days in cycle): 14.90 kWh/day and 0.33 Therms/day
$69.54

September (31 days in cycle): 22.68 kWh/day and 0.35 Therms/day
$130.09

I did learn the power company will no longer allow customers to pay with a CC, so I won't be able to get my miles as I normally do. I will set up this account on auto-pay, though, which will still make paying very convenient.

In my part of the world, October's weather so far has been rather mild: not hot enough for the AC, yet cooler, but not enough to HAVE TO turn on the heat. Thanks to Fern (Wild Blue Yonder) and the "No Heat Contest," I am being far more conscious about the just turning on the thermostat to get comfortable. Now I just go for a sweater or a comforter instead.

    I am wearing two sweaters, but still have not turned on the heat. It was about 34 outside when I got up.
