Today We meet friends at Brunch Time AKA 10 AM.
Yesterday I had a phone call from the surgery scheduling person that due to schedule changes by the surgeon that my surgery was being moved from the 21st to the 14th. Since I still do not know what time I may or not be posting next Friday. I will ask my brother to use the email list to update You with the results once he has them.

Hi
Currently It is 65 degrees outside. The predicted high for today is once again in the 80s
I called NS yesterday and the person I spoke to adjusted the order as follows. Processing On: 09/05/2019
I got the car back $402.60, Considering the List I had not that bad
1. State Inspection
2. Oil change and filter using Synthetic Oil.
3. Lubed the Door hinges, the noise was atrocious.
4. Replace failed fan speed resistor, I only had the top two noisy speeds left.
5. Replace the Driver side power window switch.
I should be hitting 17,000 miles on the car soon, I already filled the gas tank once this year I suspect that a lot of the repairs were due to really short trips with the car since it was new in 1999
Scary stuff

Hi
Currently It is 60 degrees outside. The predicted high for today is once again in the 80s
I'm not so sure I like our forecast for the upcoming week.
Currently they are predicting rain on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Tuesday being the day I have to drive through rush hour traffic for the pre-admission testing and little ole me not having driven through rush hour traffic in the 90s
The last job I had that started in the mid 90s and lasted 16 years I could leave home at 9:50 AM and be at work for the 10 AM open and the return home was after the rush hour so I am not looking forward to rush hour in the rain.
