I hated starting up the vehicle for such a short trip. After doing a search for aluminized mylar online, I decided to see if Walmart carried it. No deal, they had nothing like it, save perhaps tape that was similar. It may be a special order item, or even only really available online. If D.C. is correct, and I believe him I just like... checking, than the design I am considering, with the mylar, might get well above the 400 F temps offered by the mirrors. A 5% to 10% increase might not apply directly to temp, but it would have an impact. But more, mylar would most likely be cheaper, easier to install, and last longer than glass mirrors. All good things.
The dishes are probably ready to wash but... Okay, fine, I do procrastinate on some things. I will do at least what I have soaking, three loads worth, before I go to bed... Mom. I'm still running a bit hot, not felt temp but my energy levels have taken a bump. Those meds really do something. And I am on half doses until my medicine arrives or I can get in for my next appointment, since I am low on meds. I suppose I could call in and get meds here in a flash. But to be honest with you, and since it was my fault, I hate to add expense to what they are already doing for me. Oh, sure, I don't trust them. But I am starting to think they are doing the best they know how. And, yes, that means something. Perhaps as my head clears, or as I get to know them, I do actually feel that they are trying. We have slightly different goals, or sub-goals, and different beliefs about some things, but our ultimate goal is the same.
Or they have gotten into my head, like they Xavier did to Wolverine. Well, actually, I know they are and try. And, I let them a bit. Well, doctor, it all started with my mother. She said things like, "You really don't want to do that". Now, I knew I really did want to do that. Between fear and love and need, I started saying, "You are right, I really don't want to do that". And, I started, at first just in her sight, then later on my own, not to want to do that. And yet, I always still really wanted to do that. The layers after that are... unfathomable. Shut up already. ;P
A bit of tinkering to cool down, some dishes, then bed time. I hope you are busy unwittingly swallowing your nighttime supply of bugs. Happy dreams.
I don't remember where I got the roll sitting in storage waiting for the giant umbrella egg-fryer project to get built, but the place I ordered from offered free samples of the various thicknesses, allowing me to choose one I thought most suitable.
ReplyDeleteIf you still have the link to my "resources" blog, it might be linked in there somewhere, but no promises.
No link. I'm using a loaner computer still, he never has gotten back to me. I take it what he broke, which wasn't the problem in the first place it just didn't look neat, he can't fix. I honestly think he likes the case enough that if he thinks I will just forget about it, he will too. Not going to happen. Anyway, no old links. He probably killed what I used to have.
ReplyDeleteYeah, a little annoyed. But I found that Sears carries it. The problem is this old(er than even my) computer can't handle getting through even some shopping carts/check-out routines at some venders. So, I will call them tomorrow. I think it was $19 for 2 mil, 4' x 25', the best price I saw out there. I did see some adhesive stuff, supposedly longer lasting. But a lot more expensive and a little side company, so not really anything to dig up on them as to quality. Sometimes good sometimes not only bad but your credit card ends up being used by Sven or Julio or Marx or Vladamir.
