Just Say "NO!"

...to Fix-A-Flat!!!

Car ownership comes with LOTS of ups and downs. And S learned the FIRST day of ownership about some of the downs. Yesterday, we were up bright and early to take a roadtrip in my new car. As we were leaving S noticed that HIS car had a flat. Yep. On Friday, I gave him my car after I got a new car. Everyone was excited...until Saturday morning when he had a flat. We decided to leave until Sunday when we were back to fix it.


Sunday morning..Got up bright and early to take the S-car to get the tire fixed. (Yes...mom fixed it for him.) I didn't put the spare on because that would mean I'd have to unload the trunk to find it. Not in the mood. So...for the first time I grabbed a can of Fix-A-Flat thinking I would have a temporary fix so it could drive to Firestone and get fixed. WRONG!!!! Yes, it fixed his flat but NO, a flat can't be fixed after using Fix-A-Flat. HUH!?!?!?!? Seems the chemicals in Fix-A-Flat adhere to the inside of the tire making it impossible to patch the tire after using it. chit. Does the can of Fix-A-Flat tell you this? no. WHO KNEW!!! Not the guy at the auto parts store. damn. So momma ends up buying a new tire and getting the oil changed for the S-car. cha-ching!

Then I thought I'd be a good mommy and get the car washed and vacuumed and armor-all'ed for the boy. I never did that for me when it was my car!! LOL


He was sooooooooo tickled when I got back with HIS shiny, clean and fresh smelling car...that we took it out and bought him THREE suits to start his internship at the TV station with next week.

Momma needs a sugar daddy!!!

Weekend Wild Hairs

After feeling bad the last couple of days, I was up bright and early this morning...like BEFORE 7am. ugh. WHY!?  So...I got a wild hair and decided to get up and moving and run a few errands. By 10am I had...

had a typical Saturday morning holiday breakfast at Whataburger...sausage, egg and cheese taquito with ice, cold orange juice.

filled up with gas...LOVED getting 10 cents off!!

got the car washed...

















and went to the nursery...where I found out I really wish I had a truck or SUV!! yes, the trunk was full, too!!!


The nursery had LOTS of pretty flowers for me to kill. I decided to let them live...at the nursery...since I'm already becoming a serial killer at home.



Happy Memorial Day Weekend!!!
Stay safe!!!
