So last night I decided that I wanted to learn photoshop from the ground up.. this isn’t the first time that I wanted to sit and take the time and learn it, but with a little one running around (2 year old), that’s quiet difficult. But now that I finally have some free time (while he’s asleep), I thought I could take the time and learn something fun!

Here in Phoenix, Arizona gas prices are $3.60 per gallon and from what I hear from the media, that’s the $0.16 cheaper than the National Average! So what is that doing for businesses? If it cost more to get to a store than it does to buy something from the store, will that hurt business? Of course!
