I just did a 3-day stint in the hospital bed and am now dragging a
bag-o-piss around the house with me. This will be the case until the 29th.
Details not to be supplied.

Luckily the car only needs an alignment ( not a problem) but still has an
oil leak coming from somewhere I can't see above the forward part of the
sump, both sides. It could be the sump and I'll check that. by removing the
sump. If it isn't the sump, this will be an engine out task. Which is a bit
of a process due to the CSP exhaust.  And I still need to get the washer
stuff in and working. Should be no problem, but it is a left seat out
operation.

The main problem is my back, which is a vertical train-wreck until my
operation in early July.
