Cracked the glass on the windshield this morning because it was so cold. It looks like a stone hit it and cracked across just by the wipers. Cost for new replacement is only $160, so I'll just get it replaced in the spring.

Of course the price of gas goes up? Why wouldn't it? A week ago it was $1.59 ish and now it's $.40 more. RRGGHH!! Oh well. I have completely given up on soda/pop (whatever you call it) and I feel good. I'm working on eating better - so that means no more bacon egg and cheese sandwiches for breakfast - and of course, no more gas station eggrolls.

Days after Christmas and it was near 60 degrees. All of the snow has now melted as we await the new year. I had to pick up a charger for my cell phone because I forgot it at home and the battery was near dead.

It is unbelievably cold this morning and the wind is very strong. With the wind, the temps are near -20. Very difficult driving on the turnpike as the wind was whipping cars back and forth. This is Christmas week, so it should be a short/easy week. God Bless.

After the TOL->CLE->TOL roundabout this weekend, it was again time to drive to Cleveland. It was considerably warmer than it has been in a while - although EXTREMELY windy. There were a few times on the turnpike that the Jeep was being pushed one side to another. High today is supposed to be 57.

Filling up the tank on a roadtrip to Lima, OH. I think the gas pumps are set to deliver fuel at a faster rate - since gas prices have gone down, I have noticed that on more than one occasion fuel ends up leaking outside the tank when full.

I filled up in Indiana on my roadtrip. I hit the wrong button and filled up with premium. The car didn't run any better though. I did get an oil change in the morning - it was overdue. I also added a bottle of Techron Concentrate Plus fuel system cleaner.

Gas under $2/gallon - I never thought I would see this day. It was a Friday - and winter winds are pouring in. Its supposed to rain after noon. I have siders putting up vinyl siding at work, so I don't know how much they will be able to get done today.

It is heading down the road to wintertime. I am really surprised at how quickly my car heats up. It's less than 5 minutes from cold start to toasty. It was nice to see the gas prices actually go down from last night. Hopefully this trend will continue.
