8/19-8/20: Appointment Extravaganza!

8/19-8/20: It is time for crazy appointments!

Yesterday at 7 am, I got my new tires installed withe the best of my old tires going onto the full size spare rim that is now in the back where my donut used to be. Pictured below: Spare in.....Donut out! Then I went to Firestone and got the Lifetime Alignment (this will be my 3rd alignment in 3 years so I think it is worth the cost!). After that I went to my eye Dr's

appointment and got my annual vision and ordered new glasses for the trip. Then I dropped off my first load at the GoodWill and found a replacement CD case for my car (all my CDs were stolen-hundreds. I was able to burn a few to replace what was taken and some new ones I didn't have before, but i needed a case to keep them in). Other than that, I didn't get much done yesterday. I had a headache all day. I watched a few movies while I uploaded more photos to Google Photos for back up. I scanned some of my medical documents and car documents so I could have electronic records. Seems to be what I struggle with a lot, being able to organize my records in a retrievable way. Example: My certified copy of my birth certificate and the records for the maintenance that I've already gotten done for my car. Still trying to verify that my timing belt was changed after I got the car.

Today is more appointments!

I head over to Costco soon to have them check the torque on my tires. I guess they want you to drive 25 miles after installing the tires before they check the torque. Then at noon I head back over to Firestone for the completion of my car maintenance with the added headlamp bulb replacement that was just discovered. And then I have more organization of my papers on the schedule for today. I'm working on pulling off a way to try to be able to bring Moo Moo home with me. :)

9:27pm
Torque checked!
5 hours later, my head lamp bulb is replaced, spark plugs changed, oil changed, coolant is flushed and brake fluid is flushed! :) Yay! Now all I need is to replace one of the wipers (One broke when it froze to my car this last winter so I only replaced the 1 when I guess I should have replaced the other one as well?), replace the battery, and replace the air filter and Subie will be trip ready!

Another Amazon shipment arrived today. I had to replace my brand new usb cell phone battery bank (stolen before I even had a chance to use it), 3 gallon water container, and 6 feet USB charge cords (some of my old ones went bad).
