Ugh. My tire pressure sensor light came on today. I knew I was going to have to replace my tires at some point this year; the tread was just barely passable when I had my safety inspection done in October, but I'd really rather not spend $500 on tires right now.
Mine did that on Saturday! It turns out after this winter and the crazy warm weather, my pressure was too high! I'm going to hope that's all your dealing with.
I keep meaning to post more, but I've got nothing to say.
I've never got anything interesting to say, but it certainly doesn't stop me. Andplusalso, I think we all love to hear from LED even if it's not groundbreaking posts. Any more public transit adventures?
Ugh MH is all depressed/cranky because we got a letter raising our assessment by 4.7k(!!!).
He thinks it's because he actually followed the rules and got a permit for our new fence. It probably was. I'm not thrilled, but I'm not taking it as hard as he is. Since he works for the town he sort of feels penalized and angry.
What I'm TRYING to tell him is that it's not the end of the world. Right after we purchased the house they dropped our assessment 3.3k and he got all depressed thinking we had been 'ripped off'. So if you consider the initial -3.3k with the +4.7k, they technically only raised us 1.4k? (in the grand scheme of things) I dunno, thinking about it that way makes me feel better about it.... Now our assessment value is only slightly higher than what we bought the house for...
Now he's saying he wants to quit his job and find a new job where people don't 'screw me over'. Then he's going on a tirade about how many people he hates that he has to work with.
I tried reminding him that unfortunately I think a lot of places 'screw you over' and you're probably never going to like EVERYONE you work with. He doesn't buy it.
@ismellbooks, I took it to add air because I thought that was what I needed to do! The place I took it had a digital air compressor and it checks the pressure and then adds or releases air as needed. I just had to set it to 32 psi.
I just read on Facebook via the Pioneer Woman, its National Eat Whatever You Want Day. I can't believe I'm finding this out at 7pm! I have convinced MH to go out for nachos when he gets home though Just wanted to let you all know as its not fair to hide information as important as this.
I survived my MRI, and promptly ate a dill pickle and a tuna sandwich.
It was delicious.
This sounds wonderful. I stopped at McDonald's to grab a happy meal for a cranky DS and decided that I'd try a Big Mac for the first time. It should be called Big Mistake. -.- I knew their "special" dressing was just 1000 Island, which I hate, so it's all on me for wasting my money.

Ohh. Wouldn't that be nice? How was your too-high-pressure situation remedied?
Usually if you swing by somewhere like Les Schwab or Discount Tires and let them know your pressure meter gave you a warning they'll check the pressure and adjust as needed for free.
On the downside, my three days of low temps and the cramps I've had all day apparently were a sign of impending CD1. Major spotting going on. I have the sadz.

You can buy a gauge for like $5 and use the quarter machines at the gas station too. My first car was awful and I was paranoid so I checked it every 1-2 months.
I bought DH a portable inflator for our bikes but he uses it on our cars too. You just put in the psi needed and it adjusts it for you. It was like $40 at lowes (kobalt brand).

He'll feel better once he vents this all out.
Yikes! Does the assessment value change your property taxes? If so see what the rate is and let him know the actual amount of change. When we bought our house the assessed value was $30k higher than what we paid. We got it reassessed and DH freaked out that it would lower the worth of our house. It really dropped our property taxes like $500.
