a list of things, in no particular order
Sep. 10th, 2020 09:56 amGrey car is gone. They actually paid me for it! They'll get some of that back from salvaging the battery and the tires, but the demand for parts from a 2005 fleet car is pretty low -- I expect that it will go through a crusher and they'll sell it for scrap.
So now we're down to two cars in the driveway. And maybe my car will get back into the garage before winter. J found (through a net-zero solar consortium in A2) a contractor who is willing to install a solar system that they didn't bid. Permits are being issued as I type (theoretically - J went and paid for them yesterday after the contractor applied for theirs).
The poison ivy has mostly gone down - still lingering itchies, but that's because my immune system got all riled up, and it takes a while to dissipate.
No gardening to report - we've gotten enough rain that the gardens are too wet to work in. Just as well, as the last thing I want to do is make the itchies flare up again. I'd like to get through this summer with only one course of prednisone, tyvm.
No PT this week, but still errands tomorrow -- despite my best efforts, I still need to go grocery shopping every week.
The weather seems quite firmly transitioned to fall, so I guess I can think about doing more work in the basement. The problem there is that J somehow managed to misplace the good handset that belongs down there, and half the time when the landline rings I can't answer on the basement phone because the handset is dead. Or I can't find it, because he didn't put it back on the base. I'm sure the good handset is in the lab somewhere, but I'll never find it, and he doesn't care enough to go looking -- it'll show up in few months, when he goes digging in a random box for something else.
