Well my night started of pleasant enough. On Tuesdays Carl comes over to hang out with me. Tonight we had a special project we put together a wooden fighter jet. No easy task let me tell you but we both liked it and I am sure anyone would agree that the final product looks pretty impressive!
As I was getting ready to leave the Days home Sharon and I were talking by the back of the car, when Sharon asked what was sticking out of my tire. What a surprise there was a long metal nail (I think) sticking out of the sidewall of the tire. Sharon started to pull it out and then decided that it may go in a little too deep so we should get Paul to have a look. I am so glad we did! Paul pulled it in and I think it must have gone 1 to 2 inches into the tire, and when it came out you could hear a loud hissing. Any of you that do not know Paul, he has a business that supplies tire repair products and machines. I couldn't have had this happen a better place. Paul quickly went and got some stuff to fill the hole. unfortunately because the hole was in the side wall it didn't work soooo.... Paul needed to take the tire off my car. It just so happens that recently Paul had bought a machine that can take tires of rims and balance them and a whole lot more I'm sure. Anyway after some time he was able to fix my car and send me on my way. I am so thankful to have such great friends that can really help you out of a tight spot. I can only imaging me getting stuck on Deerfoot with a flat! Not a pretty picture.
I thought that I was going to get some crazy story about you breaking down in the middle of nowhere or something!!! Glad that it wasn't too wild and that the nail happened at the right house. Someone was watching out for you that night!! Can't wait to see you!!!
