You know, my moving this past October into my cuernrt home came as the result of a horrible situation, but lately I keep discovering more and more positives. And this is one. I am unable to drive anymore as the result of the injury to my brain so I chose an apartment in the center of downtown Tulsa. Everything I need (just about) I can walk to, take the Lift to or get a ride to. In addition, because I live centrally, it is easy to get deliveries as well. None of those things were on my radar when I made the choice to live here, but I can now see thier positive impact on my wallet. I think the $5 a gallon will be extremely challenging to many people who are already struggling. I have one friend who has been out of work for almost two years and has reverted to taking the bus in order to save money. I have a feeling we may see a lot more car pooling and public transporation being used.Dominique recently posted..
