Check the alternator and the charging system. You may have a weak or failing alternator. If you have a voltmeter, get the battery reading with the engine off. A charged, good battery should show at least 12.6 volts. If you have to boost it, it must be low on charge. Recharge it or have it tested, a dead cell in the battery would not let it charge up.
Now take a reading on the battery with the engine idling, or idling as low as possible without dying. A good alternator and charging system will make the battery now read at least 13.5 volts. If your reading is lower than this, you probably have a weak alternator.
