Got up early this morning and set two of the posts for the solarium in concrete. Biggest fear was that the dogs would slam into them and knock them akilter before they set properly. However, I got them set just early enough that I could keep an eye on them, so the posts are now set and completely straight.
Got the car towed to the house this afternoon. Very happy about it! I think the knock has something to do with the oil pump or oil pressure regulator. It builds and holds pressure but fluctuates a lot. So, have to check into it further. One hope is that I can do a flush on the engine and that will fix the issue. I'll try it. If not, have to replace them both and see how that works. The pressure evens out a bit and the knock becomes less pronounced as the engine warms up. That may be a really good sign that the pump isn't shot but just needs a flush.
The car definitely needs some work but well worth the $650 I paid.
Other than that, been a frustrating day at the end of a frustrating week. Like people have been stoned on bad drugs. Tech issues with work make me want to throw the computer against a wall at times. Getting thrown out of calls and cases before they're finished. Means I have to go back to them (and remember to go back to them). However, I had 60 cases today. I'm hoping for 70 on Monday, when the earlier shift starts. (If I can do that, I'll be able to blow right past 70 if I can get an even earlier shift after my 90 days.)
Going to finish this beer and go to bed. Would like to set 2-3 more posts in the morning before picking daughter up.
