dancerjodiI had posted an update about a month or so after insulating our house, but here's another:
Nov 07 therms: 197
Nov 08 therms: 124
Dec 07 therms: 329
Dec 08 therms: 162*
*OMFG!
I'm debating whether to stick with balanced billing because its going to take a while for them to adjust things down and lower our monthly payment. If we switch to useage billing the impact would hit right now, but its harder to budget that way. I am on top of the budgeting though. We're entering our time of highest typical useage (Jan and Feb). What would you do?

I'm glad we don't pay for heat. Electric is pretty bad though, especially the last two months with my laptop and tv running more often. :)
