it didn't help tonight that we got a $477.00 electric bill! HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!

Add $300 to that, and you've got mine. It's H-O-T hot here and this Kitty needs it kool!

i would $h*t down my leg if i got a $700 electric bill - fire up the paddles, my heart's gonna need a shock. i was po'd because my last electric bill was $137 and my gas bill was $34 and i thought that was outrageous.... audie will complain no more.

I know!! I've heard of 750.00 ones! I tried to tell him it could be worse, but by that time, he was getting out the razor blades! :shock: So, this dancin cat will be sweatin' her a$$ off instead of dancin' it off! Hey, maybe I'll sweat off some pounds--sorta like one of those old steam cabinets!!

My daughter's been dragging a portable fan around with her 'cause I've got the AC set too warm for her. (81 upstairs / 80 down and even warmer when we're not here. ) Fans help a lot. Our bill just topped $300 and only one other time had we edged past $200. We have nearly 3000 sq.ft. I'm ready for smaller ! :roll:

:roll: Our home is around 1600 square feet and our winter bills for the coldest months were around $350.00! Does anyone else have the gas price adjustment charges on their utility bills. That gets doubled on everyone's bills here alot of months. If the gas portion of your bill is actually around $70.00, alot of times it is doubled! They are passing on their having to pay more for their gas to us, which I can understand, but they are not paying double I wouldn't think for their gas. MLGW is jokingly referred to as Memphis, Light, Gas and Robbery instead of Memphis Light, Gas and Water. Nothing but a bunch of crooks and incompetents running the government in this city!

...tell mr.dd about our bill and he will kiss you. Besides needing the coolness at my age, I am here all day. This house was built in 1946. I have added all the extra insulation I can and have all newer windows. Go ahead, say it...I am a spoiled , but Kool Kitty!!! Next up....water bills!

Great, thanks! I am getting ready to beat the heat with a trip to the inside passage between Alaska and Canada. I am going deep water salmon fishing for a week!

I figured I better check out SoWal before I leave because otherwise I will NEVER catch up!
