Walks: Hood
Distance: Average 4 miles
So, Ciwt got her first electricity and gas bill for her new place - and had to sit down. Stunning. She even called a pg&e service representative to come check if the total could be possible. He looked at every meter, appliance, and who knows what. And, yup, it was possible - no leaks.
Turns out nearly everything here is 'green' - like your car if you've bought one recently. In other words, computerized, totally techie, app operated, and supposedly great for the environment. You know which age group this leaves out - basically everyone over 40.
Ciwt just walked right by all the dials for her first month - the one in the jaw dropping bill - telling herself everything they were running was a-ok. Well, what they were was Full Speed Ahead, so Ciwt somehow had to learn how to conquer those dials. Each one took a day: searching on line for the manual (they don't come with the product any more), trying to fathom it, flailing around with the dials and buttons.
And she's proud to announce, she has conquered the following (plus led bulbs in her lights and cannisters). Hopefully. Hopefully. We will see when the next pg&e bill arrives.
