Then I spent a while chatting with my buddy and his wife while evening fell.   Finally got all my stuff put away and headed home.   <\/p>\n<p>Power had been out in our neighborhood for 2 hours.  Wife and kids were grumpy.  So grumpy.   Can&#8217;t put off the transfer switch and gennie work any longer.  That is three times now in less than 2 month that we&#8217;ve had outages lasting more than 2 hours.  Not encouraging.  <\/p>\n<p>PC needs work too.  I&#8217;ll try a new PSU first.   Didn&#8217;t want to dig it out from under the desk and fall down that rabbit hole again.  Not now anyway, but it won&#8217;t start up.  I miss the days of actual power switches.   I REALLY hope the new PSU does the trick.  I&#8217;m in no mood to rebuild my main PC.<\/p>\n<p>Today though, I&#8217;m doing Dr. appointments.  One in the morning, one in the afternoon.   Y&#8217;all said &#8220;get checked out&#8221; so I am.  Thoroughly.  Rubber glove and invasive cameras thoroughly.   So far, nothing wrong.  There are still places they haven&#8217;t yet looked though.  Those places are next.  Joy.  At least we still have a medical system, and it still works reasonably well.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve got any mystery issues, or anything that might need attention, this is as good a time as any to get them looked at.   I&#8217;ve put it off as long as I could, but that was dumb.  Our world could change tomorrow.  It does that periodically.  Don&#8217;t get caught wishing you&#8217;d had something fixed while you had the chance.<\/p>\n<p>Stack up some health care&#8230; while you can.<\/p>\n<p>nick<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cool to start but warming rapidly.
