Day 3352

 I woke up at 7 today because I couldn't go back to sleep.  I played games for a while and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.

I'd intended to work on the Reflex today, but it didn't happen.  The chief reason was that it was still really cold, under 40, and I needed to do a little work in the garage to make progress.  I did discover that the wheel hexes on the Reflex were too thin to work with any standard 12mm wheel.  That lead me to Aliexpress to find better ones.  Oh well, there went the rest of the day.

I stayed on Aliexpress for most of the day.  I was just really looking for more stuff to buy.  Of course I was successful.

There was another Chinese package at the post office, so a little after noon we left to pick it up.  After that we stopped at the Satellite restaurant in Circle C.  We'd avoided it for years because when we first got her they didn't allow dogs.  Apparently they changed that years ago.  The waitress was horrified at the thought that dogs were banned.  The food there is pretty good, but really expensive.  The lunch selection is pretty limited, too.  It won't be a regular place for us to go.

We stopped at the coffee place on Slaughter on the way home in honor or the cold.  I was embarrassed at paying $6 for a cup of coffee. 

When we got home I went back to Aliexpress.  Eventually I bought about $40 of stuff when I originally was looking for a $3 set of wheel hexes.  It's kind of like when we go grocery shopping and end up with three bags of food when we went in for OJ and bananas.

I switched to videos when the shopping was done.  I ended up watching a series of 1/2 hour shows on different topics.  It was a good change from my usual 5 minute or under choices.

It's supposed to be warmer tomorrow.  I hope so.  I really want to get the other things done on the Reflex.
