Fueling up this morning, I was again blown away by another rise in the cost of gasoline. While I try to perform my little money saving tasks, such as cutting back on cable TV, and making my own lattes, it seems to be a losing battle. Everything seems to be increasing in price these days.
If that isn’t enough, the days of job security are seemingly behind us. Everyday, it seems, I hear of someone else losing their job to mass layoffs. It doesn’t matter that these individuals worked countless hours, giving up time with their families. The costs go up, but the return goes down.
When will it all end?

When enough families are out of work that they fire every last politician who has been in office for the past twenty years. Just sayin…

My son commented that it cost $95. to fill up his car, then told me he was planning to take the bus or trolley system out to the college. It’s scary right now.

The cost of fuel really is getting scary :( Over here we pay around $8 a gallon and I’m starting to think that it might be easier to walk to and from work from now on :)

In addition to gas costs the cost of groceries is hard to swallow. Some food is so dang pricey now!
