08/28 - Tart Tuesday!

Cheesus. I wish I liked turning wrenches and getting dirty. That's an outrageous price! Even at $100 an hour, which is too high, that leaves almost $500 for a coil and wires? That's beyond excessive. When I used to run my car lot, you'd be looking at $300-$400 for a job like that. If I had one of my guys do it after hours, you'd be looking at $150+ the cost of parts. $984 is crazy.

Oh, and Good Morning! I over slept. But, I'm here now.

coils are wires are like $100 at Autozone...so IDK what they're charging so much for...but they know they have me stranded 4 hours from home unable to take it anywhere else and get it done...so they're taking full advantage I'm sure...

That's good! Better than being stranded in a not safe area of DC.

I don't know why, but I am super frustrated today.....every little thing is making me angry.....I think I need to make a cup of tea and meditate for a minute before I just start screaming at random people.....must be the weather.

I have pinched nerves in my spine. Yoga helps. Yoga helps a TON.

But that really sucks and I'm sorry you'll figure out a setup that helps, just takes experimentation and stuff.

I'm sorry. I hope it gets better soon. I have problems with my right hand so I have to switch a lot to my left which slows me down a lot.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope the Dr. figures out what's going on and you feel relief soon.

I already have an ergonomic mouse and a mousepad with a wrist rest. I've tried propping my elbow on something which helps a little but not much. Also changing how high my chair is, but it hasn't made a difference. not sure what else to try :/

I'm pretty sure that's what I'm going to have to try but I can't use my left hand for anything but throwing stuff (lol) so I don't see that working well at all

lol...yeah, it was hard at first, but it's gotten easier. I felt kind of handicapped at first, but I'm a lot faster with it now.
