Tire'd Out.

It is supposed to snow tonight! Already! There are still a ton of leaves in the back yard from the oak tree that should be raked up but who wants to do this. It rained on the weekend. Sunday was pretty dry and the leaves are not soggy yet. And after tonight's snow fall - 15-20 centimetres! it is supposed to warm right back up again to 15 degrees C about 60 F for those who need a translation.

So I guess it's really time to get the sandals out of the front entry way and dig out the boots!

My car ended up with a flat tire again over the weekend. I founded it when I landed at a friend's to scrapbook. Luckily my friend's husband has an air gun in his garage and offered to put the spare on for me. This is the third time this car has had a flat on this same tire- twice from a puncture and this third time is probably because of the first two times! Follow that? I have to take it to the tire store to get the snow tires on and I think next spring I'll have to get a new tire. Can you put just one new tire on a car? I believe I am supposed to buy them in pairs. But this tire is only two seasons old so AS IF!

These are things that used to be managed by the PU - that's what spouses do right? I am learning to figure it out on my own.

At least the husband could change out the tire for you, girlfriend.

I am not positive but I believe you should change out both tires otherwise your car will be running in circles cuz one tire is lower than the other. {tee hee} or something like that.

I got to put FOUR new tires on my car a a bit more than a year ago. As if paying for a wedding and the stress of that wasn't enough. *i roll my eyes*

I know how to change a tire. Jen and I proved that we could do it when she got her first flat on her first day with her car years ago. Sheesh. It had to have been quite comical to anyone watching because it was seriously the *Two Blondes Change a Tire* show.
