My Own Heating Costs

 Yesterday, from the natural gas provider.....we got the 'adjustment' warning letter.  So for November, and on into 2023....the monthly amount we should submit to be close to the right amount.....is now 404 Euro (about 133-percent increase over last year's letter).....for heat and hot water in the house.

Yeah, roughly 4,800 Euro per year, for a 70-odd square meter place, with two people. Around 20 years ago, in the old K-Town residence...it would have been near 1,000 Euro per year.  

Even the wife responded that it's possible that the 404 Euro level could be pushed up again by March of 2023.  By the end of 2023?  I expect it to be near 500 Euro a month.  

Yeah, the gov't has a plan to cover some of the cost, and maybe 100 Euro of this monthly is absorbed by them.....but later affecting our taxation in some way.

Other than moving to Florida....there's just not much to change this landscape.
