I figured out how to apply for the Oregon Health Plan, (healthcare.gov) I thought I had selected a plan on Sunday but I think I actually selected the spinning beach ball. This morning when I tried to log in I got a screen telling me I missed the deadline. Insurance is pretty much overrated anyhow.
We are having temperatures well below freezing. The weather front came in at the start of the weekend with high winds and freezing rain which turned to sleet and then turned back to snow. Today we are going to get freezing rain. Tomorrow it is supposed to warm into the 40's and rain.
Instead of charging and servicing my generator I fixed the tail light on the Gator so I could slide corners on the highway. The Gator is not a very good off road vehicle. It has low ground clearance, is sort of heavy, has no power, poor brakes, and the belt slips if wet.
Of course I do take it off road.
Like the infamous engine on the Rock Island Line. I was ok going but I didn't get back...
I took my White 2-60 to pull it out. However, the FWA has failed. The lever moves back and forth but it does not engage. When I got the Gator out and tried to start it I discovered battery had not charged. So, I had to tow it up the hill behind the house to get home. It was a little challenging on ice with no FWA.
I should be making feed. The ground is frozen and I can drive the forklift anywhere. However, I am lazy. Also, when the Chiropractor worked on my knee yesterday, things moved around. I am putting ice on it this morning. You would think working outside in 19 degree weather would be better than ice. But, it is not.
For those who were worried about my brush with Socialism, now that my application did't process and I am going to wait on hold for hours for cheap crappy healthcare I am leaning more towards being an anarchist.
