Tonight after work, while [personal profile] derien was scrubbing the pool and moving sticks, I managed to tackle the front brakes on the car. It took longer than it should have because of things rusted together and not wanting to move. But it is done. I'm going to drive the car to work tomorrow because my commute is shorter and slower and new brakes sometimes stick and get hot until they've worked in a bit. So I figure I'll play it safe.

The only thing on the current car list that I haven't gotten done is changing the strut on the drivers side. I tried to get the bolts out today, but it just wasn't happening even after spraying the stuff that supposed to help loosen rusted bolts. Even after trying to get them to move by using the hydraulic jack under the end of the wrench. I think the only way those are coming off is with a very hot torch. They might come off with an air impact wrench, but I'm not even sure of that.

It has been a productive day, but I'm very tired.
