Sticker Shock

Gas at two stations this morning was $5.999.  My station is still $5.199.  I topped off my tank 6 days ago, otherwise I'd be doing it again this morning.  My car will be spending less time on the road and more time in its parking space.

I've cut the frills from my grocery list (except for my weakness:  Mini Klondike chocolate mint ice cream bars which I ration to one a day).  

As  the summer warms up, my fans are on.  No a/c, just fans.  I've seen my electric use go from 4 KWH per day to 6 KWH.  I'm paying $0.44 per KWH.  If my monthly bill is less than $100 per month this summer I'll be grateful.
