OMG !!! Do you live in a mansion and keep the lights on inside and out 24/7 ?  That's ridiculous I'm retired and yes I  would have gagged and passed out !  


@Goodie2shoes I do not live in a mansion.  It's a 2,800 SF raised ranch with an in-law apartment.  The utilities for the home are shared.  The thing is I've lived here all my life and I love it.  I'll be 70 next month and the thought of relocating across the country is just not a thing.  So, I'm still working full time and we are here for the foreseeable future. Once my nieces are out of school, we'll think about downsizing.  For now, it's just pay, pay, pay,
