If You Can't Beat 'Em...............

So, after we went to Utah last weekend and saw that gas was .30 cents cheaper there than here I was not very happy about coming back to Reno and pumping gas. You know we all get upset about how expensive the gas prices have been getting, but I have realized that I can't get upset or mad when I put $60 in my tank almost every week. AHHHHHHHHH!!! The gas prices are not going to drop and I can not do anything about them dropping,....... so I decided I had to do something for myself to not be spending so much money on gas every month.
This is when my beautiful bike comes into play. No matter if it is cold, snowing, windy, or rainy I will ride my bike to and from work everyday. This is the only way for me to be ok with the gas prices. I really think I could cut down half of the gas that I use if I rode my bike everyday, not to mention all of the calories I will be burning. :) Kill two birds with one stone. I have just one more day this week to complete my goal for this week. Hopefully I will keep it up. Wish me luck.!!! :) :) :)

Dude, Jen, Gas here is 3.89 AT THE CHEAPEST, most ghetto gas station. Too bad I'm not motivated enough to ride my bike everywhere. I guess I'll just buy a Prius instead.

I hear you on that! So...are you keeping up on it? Hopefully you won't see anymore snow until you come back to visit (?) for Christmas at the end of the year!

Good for you Jen. I honestly can say that I probably could never do that but I think that just runs in your family! :) Good luck in Vegas. I am so glad everything worked out for you!
