Good afternoon GH.  I am getting a late start, due to circumstances entirely within my control. Currently the temperature on the desktop is 29 degrees, just enough tot make the sidewalks slippery with the tiny amount of snow that we have received overnight.  So, true to form, I fell on my backside and banged my head.  Apparently, according to our letter carrier, I was not alone. Sugar was with me so, that complicated my life just a bit.

I am nearly certain that if I had my new boots on, that I might have avoided the fall, but who knows for sure?  I have no other plans for today, especially considering the aforementioned fall, but the need to be able to wear my boots requires a visit to the big box hardware store for some glue sticks, more on that at another time.  Turns out, that we went to a movie instead, "Warm Bodies." The movie turned out to be a lot of fun, considering that it was about Zombies.  As Mary often says, "Who knew." Then, since we were near, we stopped at Meijer and got the glue sticks and some other things while there. I thought about a new set of gloves, but since it is February 13, they had none left in stock.  If I had wanted swim suits, shorts, t-shirts and sandals, I would have been in luck.  Next year I'll have to plan ahead.

I had the car into the dealer yesterday, and they found nothing amiss.  The system, including the Mass Airflow Sensor readings had normal parameters.  So, I guess that the old buggy is good for a few more miles.  I did get new wiper blades though, and that is a good thing for future trips.  I might have found my local service facility, because they only charged me for the blades and not the diagnosis time. So, when it comes time for new car, I'll likely go there.  They were fair and honest, although like most organizations, they did try to sell me on some additional services.  Can't blame them for trying.

Otherwise, it is time to move along and then get on with my day.  Ciao.
