Tire Troubles

Why do flat tires happen only when the baby really needs a nap, it is raining, and you just loaded 50 pounds of cat litter into the trunk on top of the spare? That was my situation yesterday. Oh, I forgot, I was also due to pick up my 3-year-old at preschool, too. Needless to say, I didn't make it. Thank goodness for grandmas!
I came out of Target and loaded my purchases (including cat litter) into the car. I picked Diana out of the seat of the cart and pulled it with my free hand toward the cart corral (the only one was a zillion miles away). Fortunately, I pulled it between my car and the next on my passenger side, or I probably would have driven away on the completely flat tire I noticed there. So, I made a call and AAA earned their money for this year.
Thank you AAA for the quick and efficient service.
My husband's only comment when I called him (while waiting there), "Good thing it isn't dark out."
