Getting Old
September 10th, 2008
I should be thankful, I know. My hubby has a good job, we’re almost caught up on bills that got behind, I’m working as much as they’ll let me, we’re all healthy… All that, I am thankful for. But it’s getting really old that gas prices are so high my hubby lives an hour away from home through the week. We have a Dodge Durango that gets about 17 miles per gallon. It’s about 60 miles each way if he drives from home every day, he has to fill up every third day. At $90 a fill-up, that gets quite spendy!
We’re talking about getting a smaller, more efficient car, but that’s not easy either. All of the locally owned car dealers in our area have trucks and SUVs… why? Because everyone else bought cheaper, more efficient cars months ago! LOL!
I’ve found several telecommute jobs that he qualifies for lately so hopefully something will pan out soon!
