Flat Tire

On Sunday I had an absolutely lovely day out on the beach with one of my favorite friends.  We laid out.  We played in the ocean.  We played in the pool.  Overall, just a really fabulous day.

Then I came back to her house to get my car and go home.  But, that was impossible considering I had a flat tire.  Darn!

It wasn't terrible right at first because we ended up eating dinner while we waited for Triple A.  And I got home alright.


There's something sad about the spare tire....

The real inconvenience was yesterday when I spent TWO HOURS waiting at the tire place.  If you ask me (and you should, because I talked to my very car knowledgeable dad about this), that's far to long.

Oh, the perils of living outside of the city.

  2. Oh no! But on the bright side, if you did have a car in the city and this had happened, you would probably have had to wait three-plus hours to get your tire changed because there would be a huge line in front of you. Glad you made it home safe :)

  3. That sucks. Car troubles are never my fave thing, but it could have been worse (and more expensive!). Glad you got to atleast enjoy the day on Sunday.

  4. Yikes 2 hours? That tire should have given you a massage and made you a cappuccino in that time!

  5. Thank goodness for AAA. They are live savers. At least you weren't stuck in rush hour traffic, in this city, when this happened. Any flat tire is a bad flat tire. Glad all is repaired.

  11. That's so sad! I'm really sorry :( I hate it when car troubles happen because I am so clueless to know what to do. I hope they were able to fix everything and it wasn't too expensive!
