What a day

Yesterday when I left my work parking lot I heard a noise. My car didn't drive right so I had suspected and I was right that I had a flat. I got on the interstate anyway like a big dummy and went to exit 90, pulled over and yep it was flat. Thankfully it wasn't completely flat, hadn't done damage to the wheel nor had it blown out while I was driving down the interstate. Most of all I was thankful that Annabelle was not with me. I was all ready to change the tire by myself, I was talking to Jason on his work phone, his cell phone was dead and he was getting ready to leave. As luck would have it he had just gotten a work cell phone the night before so while he drove home he was able to call and check on me with it. I was getting everything out of the trunk, had the spare ready to go and was getting ready to jack it up. Thankfully a couple guys came and asked if I needed help and was going to take it off for me. They were unable to get the tire off, which probably turned out for the best. They were afraid to pull on it too hard, they didn't want to break it and I didn't want them to hurt themselves. Jason was on the way so I told them I would be okay and they left, I was in a very public place. Another guy stopped and told me I just needed to kick it a couple times, that didn't work either. Will lived nearby but he wasn't answering, turned out he was on his back from London. Since I wouldn't be going anywhere I had Amy pick me up on the way to the sitters so we just got Annabelle & Seth together and then headed back to my car. Jason got there shortly after, he couldn't get the tire off either no matter how much he pulled or tried to pry it off with a screwdriver. Will arrived not long after that so it was a big nice get together :) Jason eventually found two screws in the tire that I had to have picked up from works parking lot and plugged them. He drove the mazda home while I drove myself and Annabelle home in the Mustang. I never imagined I could fit a car seat in there but she seems to like it. We are gonna drive it until we get at least two new tires.

I am very thankful that those guys tried to help me, thankful that Amy helped me so much and that Will showed up to entertain Annie after Amy & Seth left. Mostly I guess I am thankful that I have a husband who can pretty much fix anything.

I realized yesterday just how much I have changed, although it was an inconvenience I didn't really get upset. Stuff happens you just have to deal with it.
