Day 3698

 I woke up at 8, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast.  My goal for today was to finish up the Opel, so after breakfast I started in on it.

I'd glued the chassis cover while I was having breakfast.  The tire glue worked well and really fast.   Then I attached the Velcro to it and fitted it onto the chassis.  The result fits and looks good (except for the patch). 

I got a call from the drug people.  They wanted to know how I liked Mounjaro.  The lady who called transferred me to customer service when the survey was done.  I asked about the eye drops.  They confirmed that it would cost $500 for the first month and $150 for the second.  I have no idea why that is true when the Mounjaro I just got was $11.  

Then came the scary part with the Opel.  I measured how high I thought the body posts needed to be and started cutting.  To be safe I cut them a little long.  That took longer, but I did mange to get them the right length.  The back ones are a little high, but if I lower them the rear will be higher than the front.  I tried bending the rear fender liners up, but that didn't help much.

That ended the work on the Opel.  The final two things to do are attach the front sway bar and attach magnets to the body.  I'm waiting on parts before I can do those.  By then it was time to take the dog to Circle C.

It was 64 degrees, the same as yesterday.  However it was sunny.  That slowed Abby down some, but she still got a good ride in.  We stopped at HEB on the way home for some items to use in the next few meals.

When we got back I had lunch.  Then it was cleanup time.  I packed the car in it's box, put away some parts, took some tools to the garage, and cleaned the whole area up.  I've been wanting to get the car and the box off the kitchen table for quite a while.  I was feeling like getting stuff done so I bagged some of the stuff that had been lying on the bed, labelled it, and took it to the garage also.  I'm starting to use the parts chest I bought months ago.  It's going to be great. 

All of that took longer than completing the Opel this morning.  By then it was almost time to feed the animals.  I surfed while Ellen watched chick flicks.  Aliexpress was involved.  I was going to by a SCX30 part, but while it was sitting in the cart they raised the price.  I deleted it.

Ellen fixed steak and baked potatoes for dinner.  After dinner I surfed and watched videos on the computer while Ellen continued with chick flicks.
