    Oh, and I'd kill to have a $90 bill. On a slow month it usually runs me around $150 and when the heat or AC are really working it is just north of $250. Sucks in the summer because the water bill is usually around $275 so I'm forking out over $500 a month just for utilities.

    I guess when you have an older, less efficient home and like to keep it about 68 degrees year round then that's the price you pay.
    Climate in this area is pretty moderate and it was an extra $12k to get A/C, which I thought was total bullshit (especially for such a tiny house). In the evenings it usually cools down as soon as the sun goes down and we can open up windows and take advantage of a good breeze to cool things down. We have a window A/C unit in our bedroom that we used about a dozen times last August when it was unusually hot and Mrs HB was 38 wks preggo.

    Thanks for the input Not_A_Llama.

    Holy shit, Ray.
