Good day to you all, hope your day was a good one. Was another busy day at work as the rest of the week will be. We have so much to get done this week and not enough hours to get it all done. Not sure what they were thinking when they thought all this can be done in one week. They also said no overtime this week, so I guess they are going to be okay when not everything gets done. So, as I said yesterday that it seems there will be a daily update on the rising gas prices, well guess what happened today? Yep, that is right the prices went up yet again around here. The cheapest place is now at $4.06, and the expensive place is at $4.43 I think it was. I wonder where it will stop how high will it get before prices start to drop. Getting settled into the new place nicely. I got everything unpacked that I am going to unpack. I just need to hang up a few photos that I want to hang, and I will pretty much be set. The good thing about not having a lot is there is not a lot to unpack. Hope you all have a good day/evening.

@Bensen32 I want to say we had something like that happen around 2008/09. I remember it was the same year my husband got a DUI, and wasn't allowed to drive. Back then, prices rose over 4 dollars, 5 in some areas. Now, while it's climbing, it's still under 4, and we're hitting vacation season which is a hot time for fuel.

@toniganzon that is crazy, this area of the country is not the most expensive on gas so I'm lucky for that.

For the third day in a row the gas price at the station by my house has stayed at $4.29. It’s not great news, but I’ll consider that a small victory. There’s another station near me where the price is at $4.69.

I mean mine only went up 2 cents since yesterday so I guess that is better than the 20 to 30 it went up earlier in the week

Yeah, I mean I am seeing prices even worse elsewhere but I think we all are seeing the same amount of increase or at least close to the same.

I've had two days off because my boss is training a new person. Stuff like hearing about rising gas prices makes me so glad I don't drive.
