See that tire? That's the front tire on my van. As I was leaving this morning to take the two youngest boys to the dentist I could feel something "funny" with the van. When I got out of the van, this is the sight that awaited me. I absolutely, totally forgot about their dental appointments last week which did not please the office one bit. This was the rescheduled appointment. Thankfully, they took the flat tire news well and we're rescheduled again for a couple of weeks from now.
So. Now I'm home for the day with no chance of going anywhere. I love being home but I don't love being stuck at home. I will shame-facedly admit that I don't have the foggiest idea how to change my own flat tire and so I will have to wait until my lovely husband comes home from work to rescue me.
Glad you were at home. My last flat was at a remote "state" park in Arizona that you had to 4-wheel into. The road felt rough, but hey it's a dirt 4-wheel drive road! The tire was shredded! I had one bar on the cell phone to call a friend for help! It was a small crisis. I didn't even have knitting with me to pass the time.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement! My jacket is being knit correctly this time and is looking quite nice. Stop by to see pix soon! Sorry to hear about your flat tire...I totally understand how you feel about being stuck as opposed to just spending the day at home. We had that problem a week ago when the mechanic lagged a day on getting our car done!
