Day 1106

We got up at 8 today, but stayed in bed until about 8:30.  Then it was pet stuff, breakfast, and a little surfing.  At 9:30 it was time to go back to the oncologist to get the test results.

It was good news.  All of Ellen's tests are clean.  Both the doctor and us are very happy.  There was a note about nodes on her thyroid, so they sent us back to the imaging place for an ultrasound.  We'll have to wait for the official word, but the technician said he didn't see anything to worry about.

After that we went to the Audi dealership.  They've had the car since Monday and we needed to get Ellen's diaper bag and the vodka I'd left in the trunk..  Apparently they've replaced the bad controller, but they are "waiting on Audi to give them a navigation code".  Crap.

The next stop was an estate sale at loop 1 and 2222.  It was just after noon when we were driving up, but traffic was already crappy (it's Friday).  Southbound was backed up from before downtown to 360.  Northbound was slow from just after downtown until almost to 2222.  The estate sale was kind of a bust.  The garage had some interesting things on the web, but it was picked over by the time we got there.  The inside had nothing of interest.

We took 2222 over to 360 to avoid the crap on loop 1.  That turned out to be a good decision.  We only had to wait at a couple of the lights and traffic was moving really well every place else.  We stopped at the post office and then went home.

We got home about 4.  One of the things at the post office was the new gate controller.  I went out and switched the old inside controller to the outside (the broken one) and put the new controller on the inside.  This simple task was made a pain in the ass because the inside controller was stuck in it's housing.  Also, I couldn't remember it's code, so I had to reset it completely.

After that I had a snack because we didn't have lunch and I thought that we'd eat at Cabela's.  Then it was surfing until time to leave a little after 7.

Cabela's was a real disappointment.  The place is just a Bass ProShop now.  The knife and optics departments are about half what they used to be.  The Bargain Cave is gone.  Rather than have food in the cafeteria they had stands with pop cans and some finger food.  Worst of all, they didn't have a P365.  In fact, they wouldn't even let me back order one.  All the Gun Cave had in it were a buch of over priced Colt revolvers.  There weren't a lot of people there either.  I think Cabela's is going to shit.

We stopped briefly at Wally World to get a plastic container.  We got home after 10 and went to bed.
