Well, I try conserving on lights and heat/AC when I'm home alone. But not if we're both home.

To an extent. I still like night lights and a little lamp left on in the kitchen at night. But I turn off lights when I'm not in a room, I never leave the house with them on and I turn down the heat to 64 at night.

I like to think so. We barely use our heat/AC. Our laundry is HE & we only run it when we have a full load. Same the the dishwasher. We only use engery saving lightbulbs & don't leave them on. Our night lights are motion activated. We open/close drapes to help with temp inside. We keep most electronics plugged into a power strip that can be shut off when not in use. So I think we have room to improve, but we're pretty good about conserving energy.

No, not during winter. It gets dark at around 3:00 pm now and it's still dark when DH leaves for work, so we usually just leave everything on.
