Back from the long jog - had to do it. A couple of days ago when I started my car, the battery seemed weak. Yesterday, I went out in the morning and afternoon and started it up, and it was really hard to start. I'm sure this all stems from when it got drained because I'd left the headlights on for an hour, and the fact is I really haven't driven much since then. So, I just tried to start it and I really didn't think it was going to start - it finally did, and then I just drove around for twenty minutes to let it charge up. I got home, turned the engine off, and started it again and it seemed okay. We'll see how it is in two hours when I leave - if it's problematic, I may not go to the Wechter do - it's really far and I don't want to worry about a dead battery when I'm that far from home. However, if it starts okay I'll do it, because then I'll be driving steadily for forty-five minutes and that should charge her up good and then two hours later I'll be doing a second forty-five minutes. And tomorrow I've got the exact same drive because that's where I have to go to get the booklets signed. If it feels weak in the morning, however, I'll just go buy a new battery. I REALLY need a new car is what I need and I think I'm going to have to address that this very week.
