Timelies all!
Today we went to Hyde Park. House tour in the morning, museum/ library in the afternoon. Mr. S was in the kids' camp at the resort. It runs 9:30-12:30 and 2:00 - 5:00, so outside trips are limited in time.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

msbelle, are you a AAA member? I think I had a friend whose battery died and they brought a new one to her. If it's the battery.

Wish I was close enough to help, msbelle. If you get the battery out, you can have it tested at an auto parts store for free.

Since it couldn't be jump started, it's most likely a bad battery. Could be the starter, but that's a lot less likely.

If not AAA, does your insurance have roadside assistance? I've had more than one battery replaced by roadside assistance.

Make sure you wear some eye protection if you remove/replace the battery yourself. There is a slight change of a minor explosion, almost never happens, but eye protection is still a good idea.

Sounds like you have sussed it out, msbelle.
Hi, Zen! Yay new car for good reason!
So, on my way home I noticed that I could see 4 helicopters at once, which is unusual (typical number of helicopters that I see in a day would be zero, more than one at a time is Something). Just got a Nicole text that there are evacuations due to grass fire. Not super close to me, but I guess I am under an alert. I just hope they get it managed soon.
6pm - too early to just go to bed? That's not being alert, but I'm tired.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Hi, -t!

I'd AAA or whatever it, get it fixed.
And not tell him.
But I'm petty & not a parent. And it our house, there wasn't any question that I was responsible for basic maintenance of the car I used ( aka, mom said ' it needs an oil change, take it in after school, I'll pay you back.')

Thanks, Zen. Congrats on the new ride.
