Well, after a full day on the bloggy road, it seems we need to fill up the tank.  Gas around these here parts is: $3.58. Milk is still more, excited when I find it at the mini-mart, drug store, or just on sale anywhere for less than $4. Logically, I don’t know how we afford either. At least we buy a little less of the milk than we go gas.

Hubs works 2 counties away, so we try to conserve gas any way we can otherwise.  We don’t live in the city, so we typically plan an errand day / city day and get some errands done as well as visits with family. 

Hubs has been hearing about and looking into something-hydrogen-or-other to do to his truck to improve the gas mileage.  He’s still researching and it isn’t a main driving vehicle, so he may try an experiment, lol.  Sorry, but as soon as mechanics or car talk is spoken, it all comes across Greek to me. I’m sure whatever he said made perfect sense and was great. I saw his lips moving, and there was sound, but really… I had no idea what he was saying.

We are currently working on the paperwork for a second mortgage to cover next month’s gas bill. OK, not really, but dang we spend a lot on gas. I’m reasonably sure our gas bill is more than our car payment. There’s been times when it was close to double.

Pssst…  The giveaway ends at 11:59 PM EST TONIGHT, September 2, 2008!!  It’s a beautiful hand stamped initial charms necklace from J. Lawson Designs.  I have one (with my son’s initials on it) and LOVE it.  Be sure to enter for your chance(s) to win.
