Isn't this pretty much how #BikeHFX got started?

And nobody has ever wanted to befriend someone because "I saw them drive a car once."
I saw a neighbor loading a very small child on the back of their bike this morning and now I want to befriend that neighbor on the basis of "I saw them on a bike once."
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.

We looked at our shipping this morning. We looked at the costs and everything else and have decided

We can offer FREE SHIPPING till mid Oct.

It seems to be working out for us and we have creative ways of shipping

Have a great day!

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.
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?

In an ill-fitting suit with a improperly tied tie.
There was never such a serial killer as a serial killer in a suit leading a nation immune to prosecution.

Some days I feel overwhelmed.
Today is one of those days.

Send digital kittens or real chocolate please.

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 is tucked in at the back of the driveway. We're settled in watching old Law and Order.
We'll decide next steps tomorrow.
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.

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 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.

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.🚲
