With gas and food prices rising, a lot of folks are feeling the crunch. I live out in the boonies so I have decided to buy a motorcycle for a lot of my running since the nearest store is 4 miles away. I now try to run all my errands in one trip to conserve gas. I have cut back on some of the little trips I wanted to take this summer with my daughter. I'm also trying to earn more online. How has it affected you?

Well, to be honest, I don't know how to keep enough gas in my car. With two jobs, it's hard. If I had the one job, I'd say let the car be, but to be honest, with it's a bit hard getting from job 1 to job 2 with the time for me to get off changing with each passing day depending on the orders we get and how we can fulfill them with what we have on hand. I have considered quitting the other job to just concentrate on one, but with a daughter graduating from high school and about to start college, I have to do something. I even had a discussion started on how I can get more money to keep gas in my car and I got some good suggestions. put your input too I could use it.

I have been using the program I have listed on my webpage in my profile to make a little over $75 a month. Maybe you could try that. If ou could find a few good programs you might be able to save on gas making money from home.

Thank you. I wasn't expecting to make a Best response out of this. I just was being as real and honest as I can be. Well, for now, my daughter has graduated, they changed my hours at work which won't make it best to get to my second job at present and my car gave me problems and sometimes I just feel I should leave it alone until I can get another.
