Day 3697

 I woke up a little after 8, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  After breakfast I started working on the Opel.  It's actually what I wanted to do.

I started by swapping out two of the body mounts from the BRZ.  I needed them on the Opel because they were shorter than the ones I was using.  The swap involved grinding down the BRZ mounts.  Of course that meant the Dremel. 

I also had to modify the magnets that were on the mounts I got from the BRZ.  They had the wrong size screws for mounting on the Opel.  When I got that done I decided to mount the front fenders on the chassis cover.  That involved putting a total of 8 holes in the fenders and cover.  Just like yesterday it would have been easier to do before they were cut out.  By the tie I got the fenders mounted it was time to take Abby to Circle C.  She was very antsy today.

It was 63 when we got to the park.  Abby went at it with enthusiasm.  She ran hard almost all of the time we were walking.  When we were finished we went back home.

I went to the garage to look at the materials I have for the trailer.  I think that I have everything I need.  I even have some stuff that I think I can use for the fenders.  Then I went back to the house and the Opel.

I had to cut away part of the chassis cover to make room for the ESC.  Unfortunately I cut too much.  I ended gluing part of it back on.  That stopped progress on that until the glue dries.

I spent a frustrating time online trying to find out why the eye drops cost so much.  I had to sign up for an account and then wade through a crappy website.  The most the website would tell me was that the drug was covered.  Ellen tried later and didn't get any farther.  I ended sending them a question.  They replied with a page of instructions, including another sign up, that might lead to me getting an answer.  I wasn't up to following it today.

I switched to videos and a nap.  Dinner was leftovers.  After dinner I surfed.  That turned into another Aliexpress session that cost me $12.  Then it was bed. 

I think that I'm beginning to develop a tolerance to Mounjaro.  I'm experiencing mild hunger pains around lunch and dinner time.  I hope it doesn't get any worse.  It's two months before I see the doctor again.
