I woke up at 8, played games, and then got up for pet stuff and breakfast. It was 40 degrees out (it only got to 51 today) so going outside wasn't an option. I decided to do a few small tasks. the first was fixing the loose arms on the chairs.
The first chair was simple. It only needed a screw on the arm to be tightened. My chair was more complicated. I had to remove the arm and tighten two VERY loose screws on it's base. Then I had to go to the garage (it was cold) to get a larger screw to replace the one securing the top of the arm. I also had to drill out the mounting hole in the arm. I put it all back together and now I have a solid chair arm.
The next item was putting away some of the RC stuff that's accumulated on the bed. There's lots of parts that needed to be put into the storage cases. I made a dent in it, but there's still stuff to do. That's because I decided to install the motor fan on the Typhon. I hadn't done it before because the fan connector was wrong. Of course I had to cut wires and solder a new connector. It was harder than usual because the fan wires were too thin to use strippers. I had to carefully scrape of the insulation with an xacto knife.
I gave up on parts sorting and had lunch. Aliexpress has a big sale going on so I spent a lot of the afternoon shopping. I actually got some really good deals.
Ellen fixed pork chops for dinner. Then we did errands. We went to the post office so I could pick up a couple of Chinese packages. Then we stopped at HEB for groceries.
When we got home I did some surfing, finished the shopping and watched a few videos.
