1. Got the car stuff taken care of. Apparently there have been two recalls (neither of them urgent) and the most recent one requires a part replaced and they don't yet have the replacement parts, so they'll contact us when they get those in, but they did take care of the first, and did a full tune up and all that, and also washed the car (it wasn't in terrible shape, but always nice to get it washed). They did not have a Kia dealership in town when we bought this car, but they do now, which is very nice. It's technically within walking distance, but it would be a long walk, so I picked Carla up this morning and dropped her off this afternoon.

2. It was nice to have the day off. Didn't do anything special, just relax. I had considered putting together the Billy bookcase we bought a couple weeks ago, but decided against it. I know it won't actually take that long (though it has doors, so it will be longer than just the bookcase on its own), but it feels like such a large project. It was so nice with the furniture for the garage, I could just leave it half done and do a bit each day and it wasn't in the way, but this is for Carla's bedroom, so it needs to be done all at once (though I suppose the doors can be done on another day). Maybe this weekend. We really need more shelf space, so that is a good reason to get it done lol.

1. We had a nice dinner at Disneyland tonight. The parks were crowded, but it's finally feeling like fall weather, so that made it more pleasant than hot and crowded for sure.

2. Speaking of weather, it rained for a few more hours last night after I went to bed. It doesn't look like we're supposed to get any more in the near future, but I'm glad we got as much as we did.

3. Yesterday at work I saw this sweet potato spread and meant to buy it before going home, but forgot. But today I remembered, and I had a piece of toast tonight with butter and the spread and it was so good! It's not like a sweet potato jam, it's a creamy spread more like peanut butter. The package says you can also spread it on before toasting to give it a real roasted sweet potato feel, so I'm going to try that next.

4. I'm taking the day off tomorrow. On Monday a check engine light went on in the car, no accompanying beeps or message, so it didn't seem urgent, but it did stay on, so Carla called and made an appointment to take it in to the dealership. She's been wanting to get a tune up anyway, and there's some sort of recall that should be looked into as well. The appointment is for tomorrow, and I just decided that even though we have another car I could use, and it's not me taking the car in, work doesn't have to know that, so I put in a PTO request and told my boss I have to take the car to the shop, so I can't come in. (Now today the check engine light was off, but it does still need to get checked out, so we're keeping the appointment.)

5. Look at that leg!
