Indeed, the Jeep passed with flying colours with the new oxygen sensor. You can take off the gas masks now! I think there should be a way to get this tested more often than every two years. I suppose I could just go and get it done. I'll think about that. Next year.
According to the maintenance manual I have, I should be getting better mileage now too. Which is good news what with a litre sitting at 85 cents right now.
When I got the plates renewed the lady there managed to give me a temporary license with my corrected address on it. I was on a roll, and my health card is going to expire tomorrow so I called them to find out what's up. After 15 minutes on hold they told me what I'd suspected - the new card had been returned to them. I expect the updated vehicle registrations and a license are also among the missing mail items.
I might have to move just so I can get mail again.
After a really incredible, so close to normal, day yesterday today was the slow achy rebound and tonight seems to be the end of that. Why's that happen exactly? I crashed in front of the TV at about 6 too tired to eat even and now I'm more alert than I've been all day.
The news is just plain depressing, too. Free access to non-existent medical services is going to get worse as doctors retire. That's not news. We already know that. News would be that the system is improving. Bah.
I guess I'm a bit cranky after my day of dealing with other less than accessible government services. Deal with it.
To be honest, some of it is irritation at myself for being undecided about whether to do something. I'll just do it. There - now I've decided.
