The other day a light blinked on that resembled a gas pump....I know that one well: $50 please (and that's with my small, relatively fuel efficient VW). <em><strong>Crazy, isn't it? And here I am thinking of up-sizing because my little Honda Accord is no longer capable of handling a 9 yr. old, 2 dogs, a ladder, and misc. accessories needed in my business.

Crazy, isn’t it? And here I am thinking of up-sizing because my little Honda Accord is no longer capable of handling a 9 yr. old, 2 dogs, a ladder, and misc. accessories needed in my business. Ugh.

It sucks BIG time - especially when you’re the sole bread winner and it seems that all your money is going toward gas to get you to and fro. I’m trying to walk more since everything is pretty accessible here in my small town. We’re even walking to and from school now that the weather is warmer.

I just couldn't get myself to pull into the gas station. I don't know what I think I am going to do when I run out. I guess I'll use one of those new $5 bills and get 1 1/3 gallons of gas. <em><strong>I always let my tank get down to "Eat Me" before I think about putting any more in.

I always let my tank get down to “Eat Me” before I think about putting any more in. It’s just so painful parting with my hard earned money, and I know it’s only going to get worse.
