I should not be as excited about this as I am, but last night I deep cleaned and replaced the motor in my Resmed Airsense 10 Cpap machine.

Lately, I've been really wanting a cat. Our oldest daughter used to have really bad allergies but they seem to have lessened quite a bit over the past couple years. Maybe we'll have to test the waters...

My BIL and nephew have mild cat allergies. They also have 4 cats. Kitties are worth it. 😻
 
Did my Thanksgiving food shopping woohoo - then popped into a Marshall's to get some Thanksgiving napkins and there was no Thanksgiving anything there and it's all Christmas - wtf - I have 25 people coming for dinner and I need some matching napkins - I don't get into a holiday for real with shopping until the week of so this 6 weeks out thing in retail is really annoying

How quickly can you drive to SE Michigan and back? I am sure I have plenty of Thanksgiving napkins (paper or cloth). My wife has never met a holiday-themed napkin or placemat that we apparently didn't need.
 
How far are you travelling for thanksgiving dinner ?

I am going within my fair county (5 miles)

That is the same machine I use. How do you deep clean and replace the motor. I'm coming up on five years.

I ordered a motor from Amazon (about $90) and followed the instructions from this guy. Just make sure you have a T10 screw driver before you start.


When I had it fully disassembled, I cleaned everything really well. The silicone parts I just used water and paper towel, and in other spaces I used q-tips and alcohol. I was shocked at how dirty the motor was realizing that I was breathing that in every night.

Can Amazon deliver any tomorrow?
 
I'm out at noon. Skeleton crewe being left behind to deal with the afternoon.
 
I'm in the office. It's month end, so there's that to do.

Bonus: listening to 4 staff people try to fix the automatic fold/stuff/seal machine. None of them are engineers.
 
Work up this morning to our town's social media "chat". A resident called me "sketchy". WTF does that mean?
 
Would you put an inflatable Christmas character that also had lighting on your roof ?

At least you're not starting the week with all the snow Gaylord area has.

It's just cold here.

We have fog here in Reno . . . very rare (happens maybe once every 3 years), but it reminds me of home in the Central Valley, where it was like this every morning from December to February. Yay!

I'm just super tired. We host two gatherings over the Thanksgiving holiday. And I had to take my kid back to college yesterday. Then got a work email late last night from a turkey that ticked me off.
