Floundering lately

 I am going to have to go around my mental block and get a POA for dad ASAP.

I left the toyota plate renewal until 1/2 way through this grace month and 'oh crap, emissions required.'  Went to emissions place today but the check engine light makes it fail so I have to get that fixed.  I went to grease monkey and had them change oil and asked them to clear the codes.   "sometimes we are not allowed to do that"  I guess they were not.   So stupid.  I suspect the code is just a remnant from the battery going bad.  If there is a real issue with the car the code would come right back.   I'm probably going to be lucky to get the darned thing fixed in time to renew by the deadline and will have to remember not to drive it until the mailed tags arrive.  

I am in bank/zelle hell.   Tried to set it up zelle on dads WF since it his main bank that gets the SS deposits  etc.  But they INSIST on trying to send the approval code to the home phone by TEXT only.  They even did that with my new bank account sigh which had my cell phone entered when I set up that account.     First Bank has locked me out of the online account.   I installed zelle on my cell phone to try to use my elevations via the debit card.  Cannot because I have the # and email attached to First Bank.  D'oh.   I might have to get a 2nd cell phone and 2nd email in dad's name to be able to do the zelle payments from his bank accounts.   I don't want to pay from my checking and transfer money to reimburse myself.   Must get the dang POA yesterday to get things straightened out.
