someone was saying about how expensives cars are to run? ..... well... it's been a week of finding out!
$1200 on Monday for tires for the 2019 Kona.
and today the 2012 Prius (262,000km) got her issues dealt with. Looks like the (original) radiator and water pump had some leaks which caused the "master-alarm" that forced us to take it in.
Final bill $2799. Parts and Labour were about 50/50.
So ya... $4000 in the span of 3 days is not fun. But it wasn't completely unexpected. Both cars are fully owned/bought new. So they continue to serve us well now and hopefully for a good bunch more years.
I do still need to get the Kona in for annual brake service.
*deep breath* not this month. 😭

Narasimha is the fourth incarnation of the #Hindu god Wishnu. For reasons, rage is a key trait of Narasimha, especially early in the incarnation. #trivia
Yesterday (Thursday) was "Narasimha Jayanthi", the birthday of Narasimha. The occasion is observed with pomp in Waisnavite locations across #India.
I of course attended the Narasimha Jayanthi festivities in #Udupi. Of the many people I encountered, two were rather rude and directed some anger at me, which I thought I didn't deserve. Still, I handled one of them right, which is by ignoring them; but I think I responded a wee bit in kind to the second. 😳
Needless to say, those two interactions left a bitter taste in me, but I later consoled myself that maybe it was just that Narasimha cast his shadow on some people that day, what with him having just been born. 😀
PS: Anyway, enjoy this presentation of Udupi Krishna on the special day:

Went to the grocery store. Managed to get most everything for under $200. Came home. Bent over to start putting everything away and my back was like noooooooooope. 🤕
Gingerly put everything away.
Now flat on couch.
No more yard work this weekend 😂
I wish ibuprofen worked on grocery bill inflation too.

A little discouraged this afternoon as I spent part of the day adding extension wire into the 2nd pump as I had the first.
Two tries on both ends splicing in the cord and both times the pump fails to start with a low voltage on the pump-side error. 😢
Hate losing a day… but also unsure where the problem is. If it’s the pump, my splices, or the quality of the extension cord spliced into it (it is the other half of the same cord used to extend the first pump.) Really hope it is not the first! But the other two options suck too because it is an annoying job to do the splices.
Bummer.
Also after the foaming in, it looks like I still missed a significant gap somewhere. Only redirected about half the water. There is a lot more coming down to the end of the waterfall which is good. Still lots coming out the bottom under the flat rocks.
I think I am going to try splicing in a newer extension cord another day since that will kind of answer both the splicing and cord questions at once.
For now though, no extra bottom poolpond circulation/sprayers, just the main pump. And I still have 1.25 cans of foam to use, so I will plan for another day of foaming when I can take a super close second look at where the water is going that it shouldn’t.
Can’t all be successes. Like computer stuff 😝
Onward!
My outdoor office was fun tho. 😊
