What a weekend

I dropped my son of at a friends house for the weekend, went to Mr. Paperback to try and pick up a new toy for him, and maybe on for my daughter. (they didn't have what I wanted for her)

On my way to the Mall to look there, I heard this ominous "flap flap flap" sound.

Yup, sure enough the right front tire was flat.

I pulled over to change it, and the jack got stuck not quite high enough to put the spare on. I wound up bending the handle of the crank trying to raise it. A Good Samaritan nearby loaned me his jack, and I was able to finish the job.

My back still hurts from that. I have to buy a new jack next paycheck and a new spare. The donut is almost bald. I was able to get a new regular tire though.

The most annoying part is I had to put my jacket on the ground to kneel on while working, and I had just washed it that morning!
