Energy Efficient?

You will recall that I was sick to my money saving stomach last month when our gas/electric bill was nearly $300. This is normal for the Midwestern season, but that fact doesn't make it any easier to process. So, I worked extra hard (You're chilly? Put on a sweater!), and coupled with a few days of nice, mild temps, this month's bill came in at...$170. Still nothing to scream with glee over, but a definite improvement!
