Today’s Thoughts
Another breezy winter day.
It was time for my vehicle to get 15K milage service. I called a few
weeks ago to see about an appointment. I was told it would be a 3-4 hour
service. Yesterday I called and was told they now were doing drive-in service
with no appointment. I asked how long it would take. She said about an hour
after it hit the bay. I got there about 9am and was out just before 10. Good
service but not good communication I guess.
Tonight is the State of the Union speech by the President. Rachael Maddow
did a great job on selecting the ‘Designated Survivor’ for that address. If you
missed it, search for the designated survivor Rachael Maddow and you can
enjoy it. I will be watching his speech to see what our President has to say. I’ll
also watch the Dem response.
