I talked with a friend today, sharing news of my low thyroid. As I described symptoms my friend did one of those "OMG!" reactions and it seems he has been dealing with the same things (perhaps further along than I) and wondering what is happening. So my cataract surgery may result in two of us feeling much better. (He has an exam scheduled in a couple of weeks and he'll now be sure to request a thyroid check with it.)

Thunderstorms are moving through the area tonight, resulting in the cancelation of a photo shoot I had planned for tomorrow. One thing I have to tackle as an indoor job is replacing the luggage wheels. They seem to be held on by some kind of pressure-fitted rivets so I'll now research how to remove and replace those. I see the replaceable ones online have posts and rivets, so I suppose an Allen wrench and a hammer will be the correct tools. Tomorrow will see me prying a wheel off and mending a cut in the lining I made to take a look at the inside of the wheel area. I imagine that will look suspicious to any TSA person, but whatever. Maybe I should install a zipper on that point so they can just open it to look and not tear up the insides.
