Our electric bill was actually good news to us this month!
After months on end of frustration over and investigation into electric bills over $400 each month, we finally were able to determine that our water well pump was malfunctioning, and thus was literally running 24/7.
About three weeks ago, we were able to get the local water system guy out here to work, and discovered that indeed, the pump pipes had several leaks...losing about 5 gal. a minute, which is why it kept running to keep the proper pressure in the pressure tank.
While we were not happy at having to pay over a thousand dollars for all the work and a new pipe, we knew it had to be done. Another praise in it all is that Mark's work schedule with Hillman is flexible enough that he was able to assist with the work, which saved us hundreds of dollars.
All in all, I must say we were "excited" for the first time ever to receive an electric bill today...$275!!! Quite a relief from the $400+ it has been, thank you Lord!
