permanent coffee filter
didn't go anywhere I didn't have to
no lights on except when needed
used over the stove for nightlight
used walmart type bags for trash instead of trash bags since they were already here and free
have the air up an using a fan
been using toaster oven whenever possible instead of oven for quicker cook time hence less electric whenever possible
dishwasher ran ...didn't use heat dry...Bank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck. When the world ends the only things that will be left are cockroaches, Walmart, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Not necessarily in that order. The order remains to be seen.

washed a lot of the dishes by hand instead of running dishwasher..don't know if this was saving anything...water or electric as it's a well pump which uses a lot of electric
No laundry since Sunday as I'm waiting on fuller loadsBank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck.
