Another Cold One Today!

 I had to get up slightly earlier than normal today as the car was to be taken in for a new console screen.  Basically, ever since I first got the car, six years ago, as soon as it gets cold out the screen goes blank and the steering wheel buttons don't work.  This is not really the most horrible thing that could happen, it's more of an inconvenience, but to have spent a crap load of money on the first new car I'd ever owned and to have something repeatedly break was demoralizing.  It's a quick fix for the dealership, I just need a hard reset of the battery, but I don't feel I should have to have that done.  So today they are replacing the console with a new one, in the hopes that this will no longer happen.  I had to drop it off for 8AM so I made sure to get up early to make the kids lunches and get myself into a presentable state to be seen by other humans.  Also it is still -40C here with the Windchill so I needed to make sure the car started.  Thankfully everything went as planned and I was shuttled home by twenty to nine to start the work day.

  My mood has been a little on the down side lately.  I start the day fine but by bedtime I am seriously cranky and want to have nothing to do with anyone.  I'm not sure why this is happening but I do want to change that as soon as I can.  I'm tired of crabbing at everyone and it's not fair to them that I take it out on them.  Maybe I need more chocolate in my life?

  I'm also feeling very tired of having to make meals everyday, all day, for months on end.  It doesn't stop me from doing it but I find I order lunch in for myself a bit more than is probably good for my wallet.  However it's such a simple little treat for myself that I have a hard time not justifying it.  I'll have to give it up for shortly but for the next little bit I think I'm going to keep it up.

  Well I should actually get to work and sort through my emails to see what needs to be dealt with today.  Not too much new has come in but I have lots that need following up on. 

  Until next time, stay safe everyone!
