I've created a new weight loss program. It's called the "They want how much for [insert food item here]? diet. You just go to the grocery store, look at the prices, come home empty handed and live off water and saltine crackers.

Is reddit now forcing people to get the app to see posts? It used to ask if you want to open in the app or stay in your browser. Now it just tells you to open in the app and prevents scrolling in the browser. I don't want another app.

I left my purse at work today but I brought home some one else's phone so I probably came out even.

Good news: New starter is installed and the car runs. Bad news: I have to give Grampy his brand new car back and resume driving my own old car.

Grampy is up to his elbows in grease, we've confirmed that the engine is not seized, we aren't quite at the point of calling divorce lawyers, so I guess we'll call it a win. Next step, order a new starter.

I've been enjoying the Too Good to Go app. Restaurant leftovers that would otherwise go into the compost. Big discounts but it's surprise bags. You get whatever is left. If you want to try it let me send you an invite and I get a $2 voucher. Fun for adventurous eaters.

Car still won't start. Apparently letting it sit in the driveway to think about it's behavior doesn't work. I now know where all the fuses and relays are (although I still don't know the difference between fuses and relays) and they are not the problem. When do the Chinese EVs arrive?

We killed the battery. Can't get it into neutral to push it back. Youngest son to the rescue with his portable car charger. Don't leave home without it.

My job is to "try it again" on command while Grampy tinkers. So far, no luck. Now we need to push it further back in the driveway. (Remember Grampy's accident? Still waiting for shoulder surgery.) No worries. He has a farm jack. A tow without a tow truck. Hooking it up now.
View from inside a car with the hood up.
You can see a bit of a torso and a gloved hand through the space where the hood lifts up.

My car won't start. Not even a che, che, che. Nothing. Nada. Grampy has watched all the YouTube videos and is trying to figure it out. Should be a fun weekend. Wish us luck.

HaliSky In case you haven't looked at your maps app recently, a structure fire, a vehicle accident, and a power outage have created a traffic trilogy in the downtown/southend area. You might consider staying late if you drive or bus.🚗🚌 BikeHFX you are free to stick with your normal routine.🚲

regardless of a person's view on various pathogens, just the visable difference between a used filter and a new filter should motivate everyone to advocate for better indoor air quality.
 two air filters lying on a wodden floor. one has been used and is dark grey. the other one is white because it hasn't yet been used.

Dolly Parton was more than a country icon. She was also one of the entertainment world’s most prolific philanthropists, using her success to support causes ranging from childhood literacy and education to disaster relief, healthcare and the development of Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccine. #Dolly

Back from a road trip. We had a bit of a waterfall theme, stopping at 4 different falls along the way. These are from Montmorency just outside Quebec City.
A rainbow formed in the mist at the bottom of a waterfall. Taken from the top of a waterfall, this picture shows a long set of steps, almost 500 steps, on the bank at the other side of the falls. The lower section of the steps are wet from the mist coming off the falls.

Heads up HaliSky Water is off in most of Eastern Passage due to a water main break. No estimate for when it will be back on. Maybe plan to go out to supper instead of cooking.
UPDATE - Halifax Water is asking residents to reduce water consumption as crews prepare to repair a water main. Conserving water will help maintain system pressure and support repair efforts while the work is underway. Please minimize use of running water, flushing toilets, or doing laundry during this time. 

Halifax Water crews are on-site undertaking an emergency water main repair near 1377 Main Road, Eastern Passage. As a result, water service will be temporarily shut down in the area. This will impact a large portion of the Eastern Passage community. No estimate of service restoration time.  

There will be stop-and-go traffic in the work zone. Experienced traffic control personnel will be on-site to manage traffic flows.  

Customers in the area may experience discoloured water during/following this repair. It is recommended that those customers run the COLD water at one faucet until the water runs clear. To learn more about discoloured water and to report it, please visit www.halifaxwater.ca/discoloured-water.

Looking for something to do tomorrow? How about exploring 3 historic Halifax churches? The walking tour begins at the Barrington St. church (formerly St. Matthew's) have a look around, then move on to Tobin St. (Fort Massey) and end on Coburg Rd (St. Andrew's).
