    Today, Atha:
    Reset the mouse traps in the bus
    Cleared snow off the bus and car (altitude does not care for your "seasons", mere mortals)
    Got a new phone from a good friend
    Set up an LELink LeafSpy OBD2 device to help diagnose and fix the car
    Did some reading at the library to get back in the mood for learning Python

    And Inara:
    Did trans HRT injections
    Did some cleaning and tidying
    Took the car to do a slow charge session
    Did some phone setup
    Will likely cook food for us and a homeless friend, and do some VR.
