Steps to take for my vacation
1. Turn down the water heater
2. Shut off power strips, unplug extra chargers
3. Make sure all lights are off (sometimes, the dimmer switch gets turned down, but not off.)
4. Turn the heat way down. The cat will do fine, she has fur.
5. Make sure the computer and all accessories are off.
6. Turn down the fridge if you emptied it before the trip. Likely even if you didn't empty it, it should stay rather cold because no one is opening the door. The cat can't get in there because she has no opposable thumbs.
7. Don't forget my son.
Just try to think about the most common things in your house that are running often and that your electricity/gas bill is mostly due to heating/air conditioning. Or things you don't need when your gone.
