Replaced smashed tail lights( prevents getting pulled over by the Po-lice= less stops), planned route to take care of whole weeks worth of errands in just one morning, made sure route went by "all you can eat buffet" so won't be hungry for supper( less groceries) and by the cheapest "off road diesel" I know of for some emergency fuel for the furnace( chance of snow tonight), changed front tires as the totally worn out ones could have caused hydroplaning or an accident( very bad mileage there), connected solar battery maintainer to car so the alternator doesn't work as hard, and called auto parts store to have the water pump I need delivered to my work place on Tuesday. I'll try harder tomorrow.
