Little things add up
Being on a fixed income of $623 per month, saving energy is important to me. But it’s not easy with kids. I always say, “Close the door! Cut the light out!”
I’ve made sure that air flow is blocked from coming into my home. I’ve placed strips and caulk around windows and doors to keep cold air out and heat inside. I’ve also insulated under my home.
I make sure electric things like iron, lamps, etc., are cut off or unplugged when we’re not using them. I wash and dry clothes at night, make sure I have a full load, and put up a clothes line to dry clothes (and I clean the lint vent each time I use the dryer). These things really help save energy.
