WEll I read this thread when it was posted by Apple and I talked it over with DH!!

He had been complaing about our power bill for 2 people an dhe knows I don't keeps lights on, most times it's just me and the computer an done light on my desk on!!

He was talking with some guys at work and they went bulb by bulb over the house, and they told him where the problemn was!!

We live in a city which I didn't want to live in, but he had just bought the house when we got together and I couldn't ask him to move right away so we got in a securty system for me and He had movement lights put up all around the house!! 10 bulbs in all out side!! Thisis were the problem is!! The wind sets them off, the squires and leaves and you name it!! So some days they are on all day ans these are those bog spot light like bulbs!! So we know have changed almost every bulb in the house to the new bulbs!!

I also found that $rama here sells a phillips 11wt-40wt bright ness for a $1 each!! I have put these in all our lamps and I love it in my desk lamp cause it's metal and I could never ajust it after it was turned on cause it was so hot!! Now I can touch it and no problem!! It isn't hot at all!!

Anyway I will let you know how much our bill goes down with our next couple payments!!

We have a few other lamps that we can't change as they don't make the small socket bulbs yet!!!

Thanks for the hint Apple!!
