Sunday I finished up mixing all my outstanding juices. Got a clean slate now, except I need to make a batch of base soon.

Got some good news today. Last week my old truck wouldn't start. It cranked like a hero but never fired up. I tried for three days. Had it hauled in today and the guy found an error code from something I never heard of called a crankshaft positioning sensor, which can cause a motor not to start. Got that replaced and it's fine now. I was just lucky it died in my driveway.

Sunday lunchtime an elderly lady was attacked in the street coming out of my local Fresh Thyme food shop. A young woman pushed her over and tried to steal her bag. She broke her hip and elbow. Some other customers saw it and started running towards them shouting so she jumped in a getaway car and took off. According to a relative of the victim the cops think they know who she is. Probably a desperate druggie. And a driver shot another driver over a parking dispute outside Meiers last week. It's an ugly world sometimes.

    I filled 6 weeks worth of pill organizers with all my meds and supplements. I had ordered 3 more pill boxes from Walmart in what looked like the same style as i normally use, but they were a different type of plastic and poorer quality. One was broken immediately out of the package and the other 2 look like they will break with a single use. I contacted Walmart for a refund which I got, but they said don't bother with a return, so I used them tonight, but they are definitely going in the trash as soon as I use the meds in them. The lids were difficult to place on the trays and were showing signs of breaking. I ordered 5 new boxes in a new style from Amazon to replace all my current ones. I hope these are okay. I have to have pill organizers where the compartment lids can be removed for easy filling. I'm not going to mess with trying to keep each compartment lid open and out of the way while I fill several weeks worth of my dozen (or more) meds and supplements.

    Morning, mixers.

    Seems we're done with the rain for a while. None in the guess for the next week, but temps are at least staying in the normal range.

    Yeah, lots of odds and ends on vehicles these days, any one of which can immobilize the rig. At least it was simple and relatively cheap!
