Sunday with Lauren home was wonderful. we visited my mom, her mom (Madronia) and had some good conversations around some of her latest insights and observations. She also played with Lucky, tagged along as Jen and I visited Gali for a pickup event, got her hair cut and then fixed at home by Jen and I. We drove her home in the Tesla, stopping of Texas de Brazil to charge and dine. It was all a good test for us as we learn the ropes around living with an EV. We made it there and backs with about 20 miles of battery left. This morning the Fisher-Paykel repair was done. It cost almost as much as the used unit did but still less than a new one, so I guess I should be grateful? But repairs we not an expectation when the decision to buy was made. It's done, life goes on, and lessons learned will hopefully prevent such reoccurances. Another domino in all of this is realizing it would be good to replace the old and problematic value under the sink. It is likey responsible for todays decrease in water pressure. Eagle is coming tomorrow to address it. Although these are things I could learn and do myself I also value my time and know all too well how pulling an unfamiliar strings can have unexpected consequences.
