I got a recall notice for the cruse control on the RV, have not decided when/where/if to get it fixed.

Got just over a month to go on the job.  Starting to wonder about the
6,000 mile drive.  It's a long drive.

Got one more step with my tooth implant,  go Friday to get the crown
put in.  I also had the tooth next to it pulled and a bone graft put
to prevent the jaw bone from srinnking so I can have an implant put in
its place if i decide too later.

I am going to get a "real" cell phone.  The prepaid is costing me more
than one with a contract!

What? No SS card?

Went to TD Waterhouse yesterday,  they had was my SS card. it had fallen out of my wallet when I was there a week or so ago and had called Aaron.   And I needed it just two days before.  I am getting a real cell phone (trying to keep my current number) with a contract and with the block on my credit report I had to show my SS card and then realized that that was what TDW had.

 Palm Springs shared the high  temp for the country yesterday with another CA city.  80 degrees, forgot what the other city was.  We did have a lot of rain for a couple of week, but things are drying up now, not freezing over like I saw in IN on TV this morning!

Not much going on here.  Go tomorrow to get the post put on my tooth implant,  making ready for the crown over the next few days.

Working on my house batteries.  Having problem getting everything balanced.  The charger is too high AMP for four batteries so I added two more and now they have all gone bad.  Not supposed to add new batteries to old or bad ones and that caused all of the to fry. Looking at new ones at Costco, six at $50 per. (edit: Did not have to replace the batteries).

Happy new year.  
 Went to the optometrist yesterday.  Gave him my eye history.  After the exam, he said I didn't have Glaucoma, and that I have Inter-ocular Hyper Tension.  But keep using the drops because the pressure could make it progress to Glaucoma.  Glasses were still good and so I order a pair of reading glasses for computer use.  Now to get to Mexico and get my tooth.

The Jamisons are due here today,  Nancy will be working with me in the
VC in a week or so.
