Starting off the day with spark plugs and coils replacement for this Mercedes C63s. Was misfiring and had a code for electrical fault of the 5 and 6 coil. Easy four hours.

I put Rislone head gasket fix which I found similar #sealer in #youtube video in my radiator and overflow tank and my Ford Festiva was drivable again after the old radiator cap would not go on when removed as replacement radiator was non-standard and I tried to drive to Supercheap Auto to get fitting radiator cap with no radiator cap (as it would not go on) when I should have caught public transport and not destroyed engine. #RACQ found radiator cap that fitted using a ruler. I got Rislone from Supercheap Auto in Morayfield via bus. Thermostat stuck due to or after the overheating so that had to be removed and later replaced. #fordfestiva #headgasket #overheating #headgasket #carrepairs #rislone #radiator #radiatorcap #publictransport #supercheapauto #caboolture #morayfield #engine #thermostat http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q3_kDiQb7lE

Nothing to Say

I’m down to the final minutes of my lunch break on this fine Friday afternoon. I am pretty exhausted from a lack of sleep over the past… month(s) but I’m hanging in there. I had some Purdue Popcorn chicken and some peanuts and some sugar free Hershey bites for lunch. I really want a drink of water but I still have to wait the better part of an hour before I am clear to drink anything. That’s a gastric bypass patient thing. If you know, you know.

Fed Ex delivered a package today. I am not home to get it, but it contains a new guitar pedal. If I read the amazon shipping notes correctly, it’s a compressor pedal. The first I’ve ever purchased. I have this weird idea of using cleaner guitar sounds for this year’s RPM Challenge in February and a compressor will be a part of that. I bought an MXR Dyna Comp because it’s super simple and it will let me squash my clean signal down to a delightfully mushy… mush. There are two more pedals coming over the weekend. One is a Flanger, the other is an Amp Sim. I don’t have room on my pedal board for any of these kiddos and I don’t have open slots on my power brick… so I am going to need to get creative, I think. It should be fun. I don’t think I bought a single guitar pedal during all of 2024. I know I bought a couple of microphones for band practices that haven’t actually happened yet, but no pedals.

There are a lot of tentative plans for the weekend. We may be messing with our living room and we may be going to some stores for research purposes. I hope to spend some time wandering around town taking pictures with my new/possibly antique (though probably not) camera. I got a gift card for the sugar free bakery in Salem, NH for xmas. I haven’t bought anything from them in about a month, but now I am definitely going back and getting some cookies. Good stuff.

What else… I thought there was something else… One of our cars is going to get a break job. That wasn’t the thing that I am forgetting though… am I going to go shopping for a new iPhone? That’s definitely on the to-do list before we go to Florida at the end of the month, but is it this weekend? I don’t know.

I have to start practicing the guitar. The band is hoping to reconvene (hopefully for real this time) at some point after this weekend. I need to get ready for that. Which guitar should I bring to the first practice? Probably the Les Paul Standard that my wife got me for my 50th birthday in 2021. I really dig that guitar.

I know I had something else I wanted to write about but it has slipped my brain entirely. Don’t get old, kids. This is what happens to you when you get old. Stay young for as long as you can. Unless you’re already old like me in which case… sorry, folks. We had a good run, I’m sure.

After a month, I finally got my car back. The tire was patched quickly. The rattling of my dashboard was the reason it took so long. While it's not perfect, at least it's more quiet than it was before. #carrepairs #Hyundai #Elantra #NLine

My tire was losing pressure quickly and, as it turns out, this is why. #Hyundai #Elantra #NLine #carrepairs

Orion (our 2006 CR-V) is in the shop.

Looking at a 4k to 5k price tag. Why? Because there's at least one oil leak, if not more and that means seals need replacing.

Guy started to say it might be more feasible to replace the car, & I was like, nope, we are not in a position for a new vehicle right now.

So we repair and get another 5-10 years out of him. Especially since this is the only serious issue with him. (Knock on wood.)

#carrepairs

Finished researching and ordering supplies for car repairs, including a soldering iron for some wiring/electrical issues...

One benefit of having an old and broken car is that I shouldn't be able to make things much worse/more expensive to repair or replace...

Next step might be signing up for a local welding course if I can find one...

So that can't be good.

Today was so stressful I now require a beer AND a peanut butter cup! 😜

So here's my theory about our cars: I think it's sibling rivalry. It started because my car got a new battery last year. This year, as soon as the cold hit, Robin's car decided *it* wanted a new battery. Then my fuel pump went - and a few days later, Robin's car demanded a new fuel pump too. Robin's car is the little sibling, always wanting what the big sibling gets. I wonder if human sibling rivalry is quite so expensive, though. #CarRepairs
