$US? Your internet bill seems high, I pay less in $NZ dollars. In $NZ my ‘electric’ is $170 to $200. And we pay dearly for our Electricity. We don’t have gas and no need for AC.

I’m curious why your gas and electrical fluctuate so much – it doesn’t look like simple seasonal heating trends.

Same here. I’ve been tracking my utilities for years. Watching the power bill helped me know when my heat pump was starting to go bad.

Most electricity providers have a xml file for you to download for every month that gives you 15 min interval power consumption, dump it in an excel sheet and let it graph it for you, it will be a lot easier to scroll through it and make conclusions out of.

Here water(irrigation) and natural gas(heating) go in opposite seasonal directions and average out.
I thought my furnace might be losing efficiency at one point, but graphing bills and usage proved otherwise.

Hand writing this and graphing it in 2025 is wild.

Nice, what font is that? Is this with matplotlib?

Manual graph plotting with multi colored lines, a color-coded legend on the axis, I haven’t seen such beautiful work on paper in decades.

I uploaded your hand written notes to Google Gemini and told it to graph it for you. It took less than a minute.
This is some farmer’s almanac shit right here
Glad my utility company does this for me
