Won't say a thing

Is there something you're notorious for?  Maybe something that drives your significant other crazy?  Mine is..... wait for it...... Letting my vehicle get to the big E.  Yep, I hate (that's hate with a passion) getting gas.  I'll drive to the last drop in my gas tank. I do my best to time it so either my husband is driving, happens to be in the vehicle with me or my dad is with me.  I don't know why I hate it so much..... I hate spending money on gas, I hate taking the time to do it, and in general just hate the actual pumping.

I hit an all time low today.  I went into TH's garage, spotted his gas cans and snagged one to put some gas in my car.  I knew I had less than 30 miles to go but really no clue how much I had left.  That's one thing I completely dislike about my car..... once it gets below 40 miles worth of gas left, it quits telling you.  It will warn you of low fuel at 50 miles remaining and keeping warning you until it gets to 40 miles remaining...... then all it says is "Low Fuel".  NOT COOL!

So, unless my dear sweet husband reads this post (HI, Honey! :) ) I have no plans of telling him where the gas went.  I might blame it on the neighbor.  Sounds pretty good to me. Ha!  I promise to do better but then I'd just be lying to myself (and my husband).  So..... here's to praying I never run out of gas.

Yes! I hate getting gas. My new car is so efficient that I haven't had to do it more than once. My husband is always with me on the weekends and since it's the "family" car, my tank gets filled or topped off. :)
