It still sounds like one heckuva bill...unless you're growing indoor plants of course - then it would be understandable.

no worries, next mth might be a bit lower as they are sometimes estimated readings although our bill never states that, we'll see.
oh and nope, no little sideline going on here

Re: Talking of hot ....
it depends how high the humidity is and that fluctuates daily here so i'm forever playing with the controls lol! without the high humidity i like a warm mid to high 70's inside however now that summer is here and it's very humid i have it down to 69 and although it feel somewhat cool we have to have it that low to pull the humidity out of the air. OH doesn't mind the humidity too much but then he's grown up with it.
btw our elec bill for last month was $789 ~ how does that compare to y'alls?

I'm glad yours is high makes me feel a bit better - I think ours is partly due to old and dirty system.

Re: Talking of hot ....
we have a lot of humidity here, not sure how bad it is where you are and we prefer our a/c to run much lower than your 78 hence we have to pay the price.

60 F in NJ...in the 11yrs I've lived here I've never known it to be as cold as this during the summer. Mid August...it feels more like November today.
