Feels like the last day really got crazy. Tried to do some outdoors night work, but that didn't happen due to other things needing attention inside. Then I had to chauffeur to Southfield later that morning and lost brakes on the return trip, just as I turned onto my street. Dropped Trene off at the house and ran the vehicle straight up to the service station. Whole new situation of built-in obsolescence. Fortunately, the mechanic was able to repair one thing, but there are still multiple other issues that need addressing. Unfortunately, I don't think anyone in this area deals with that type of work.
So it feels like I'm taking baby steps with getting everything taken care of on my truck. One step forward, two steps of holding patterns.
