Most of the time when I stop for gas, I just pay at the pump with a credit card or my debit card and I don’t go in the store. But today I was jonesing for a candy bar and I decided to jump inside and grab a Snickers. While standing in line to pay a buck twenty five (really!!??!!) for this candy bar, I saw a little stand with fresh flowers in it by the cash register. The flowers were an assortment of different kinds and colors, and they had some single red roses, too. I decided on impulse to spend $7 on the assorted flowers and I’m going to surprise my girl with them tonight when I get off work. Going to be a nice evening tonight.

Long lines
The long lines at the gas stations have begun to ease up a bit, some of the lines over the weekend had waits of over 2 hours. I am not a real fan of waiting for anything let alone gasoline in a vehicle with no air conditioning. Now the AAA is saying that only 30% of the stations here do not have gasoline and the lines are very small compared to the line from the weekend. It looks like everything may be back to normal here by the start of the weekend. I remember the gas rationing that we had in 1973 in Oklahoma only one station in our little town and almost no gasoline I really hope we never get to that level again although it seemed like we were headed that way the last few eeks here in Nashville. With no gasoline at a lot of gas stations and long lines at the ones who did have gasoline.
