I came across a web site today that I think I may have seen or heard referenced elsewhere, but totally forgot about it: DenverGasPrices.com. It's looking like the cheapest gas in Aurora is now at $1.97 a gallon (and "they" said we'd never see $2/gal gas again). It sure was nice to fill my tank the other day (something I hadn't done in quite a while) and have it cost less than $40. When gas was at it's highest, I believe I filled my tank once and it cost over $50. So not cool. <sarcasm>I sure hope the oil companies enjoy their record profits from their over-inflated fuel prices.</sarcasm> What a crock this whole thing has been. Now if only the price of cheese would drop ($6/lb today at Target), I would be much happier. Of course, maybe not eating so much cheese is a contributing factor to my weight loss. Hmmm...
On a happier note, I took Dad out for his belated birthday dinner tonight. We went to Texas Roadhouse and once again, it was absolutely yummay!
Have I mentioned that I'm digging this 3-day work week? I know at some point I'm going to have to do a Sunday shift, but it's nice to know that every other week I will have 4 days off. True that those 13 hour shifts (or almost 15 like yesterday) are kicking my butt and it takes me a whole day to recuperate, but I still have 3 days to do what I need and want to do. That said, I'm exhausted and think I'll turn in early. Much to do tomorrow and the weathermen are talking about snow tomorrow, too. I purchased some firewood a couple of weeks ago and I think it may be time for the first fire of the season.
