Provided nothing crops up with the alternator, things will remain good. Thinking back, my car hasn&#8217;t started this promptly in a year or two, so I think the battery may have been going for a while. Whatever the length of time the problem was happening for, I&#8217;m just glad it&#8217;s fixed.<\/p>\n<p>I also snagged some daylight-color halogen spotlights for the kitchen. One of my old bulbs had burned out, and the GE Reveal bulbs I picked up simply weren&#8217;t bright enough. So I swung by Lowe&#8217;s and picked up a pair of daylight-color halogen PAR30 spots to take their place. I then returned the Reveal bulbs to Home Depot and picked up two more daylight fluorescent bulbs for the laundry room. I had picked up two the other day, but it turns out that it&#8217;s a four bulb fixture. I&#8217;d been wanting to replace the standard tubes with daylight ones, but I&#8217;d kept forgetting.<\/p>\n<p>Can you tell that I like daylight colored bulbs? Good. I like them a lot. In fact, I try to only use them. Things look proper colors under them, and I&#8217;m fairly convinced that bright, daylight-colored light does a good job staving off SAD during winter or just periods of time where I stay inside.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16,12,34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7439","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-around-the-house","category-automotive","category-moved-from-livejournal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7439","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7439"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7439\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14190,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7439\/revisions\/14190"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7439"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7439"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7439"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
