You seem pretty tight with Santa lately, I'm sure he would oblige!

So I had to get an Apple Watch band to match the pen. Lol.

I got it from Carbon Fiber Gear in case anyone is interested.

Any significant weight savings by switching to carbon fiber?

Actually yes. It feels super lightweight on the wrist, very comfortable. I was expecting it to be stiffer than it is, but it's got good flex to it.

Somehow, co-workers at Lockheed-Martin can "award" points for innovation, etc. My wife had enough to buy a new set of luggage for our upcoming cruise.

Let's just say we will never lose our luggage on the carousel.

Even on stock wheels and pretty basic tires, the car felt extremely solid and planted. It felt great on the twisties. On paper it has 276 horsepower but that's a bold face lie and some examples have up to 300+ horsepower so it's on par with modern family sedans . It's definitely not the fastest car in the world but I fell in love again with my childhood hero after driving it so in my mind, it does definitely live up to the hype.
I have a friend that has a really nice one, and it's something I've entertained from time to time, but what I'd want would be $100K+, and for that kind of money there are so many options. I still love them though.

A new washing machine...

Last week my washer started to make clunky noises during the spin cycle and didn't drain properly. I called the appliance technician who informed me that one of the brackets holding the drum was broken and that a replacement part was no longer available.

I received my new one yesterday. Currently doing towels in hot water.

Thanks! The blue goes great by the brown walls. I didn't know that before.
