My wife is always leaving the bathroom light on, and her closet light. Both my kids leave their lights on and leave their radios on when they are not in the room.
I keep threatening my wife that I am going to pull the solar panels and batteries off of the RV and put them on the house, and hook up her closet lights, and the kids rooms, to the batteries. Then when the batteries go dead, they are SOL! Maybe after a few times of having no lights or radios, they will start to get the hint.
We have to let the water run for a couple minutes up in our shower to let it get warm. My wife is forever turning it on, then getting on the internet for 5-10 minutes before finally getting in. I always turn it off if I see her on the computer.
I'm sure I have some that I just don't realize. I am pretty anal about saving electricity and water though (we are on a well). I get on the kids for leaving the door open too long. Keeping the blinds open in the summer heating the house up. Watering the yard at 2PM when it is 97* out. Washing dished under running water instead of a half-full sink of soap water. Etc, etc, etc....
