Flat tire!

A couple weeks ago I had an adventure... Brandon had a flat tire in Queen Creek...no spare... we went to Walmart... bought super glue, duct tape, a pool noodle and pop tarts. Didn't need the duct tape... fixed the tire with super glue and a pool noodle. Made it safely back home and had a yummy breakfast of poptarts in the next morning! We are awesome!




OK... here is the WHOLE story!!!  The valve stem was broken...We looked around to see what we had to fix it with but there was only rocks and packing tape... not gonna work... I drove my car out there so we still had transportation... Walmart to the rescue!!! We aired up the tire, Brandon cut a hunk of pool noodle and superglued it all around the stem and we waited for it to dry. Didn't hear any air leaking and it felt pretty secure. We were desperate for an idea so we just put our smart minds to work and came up with that solution. The next morning I went outside and it was still aired up!! In fact it stayed aired up for three days til Brandon could get a new valve stem!! I think we have our million dollar idea here!!!

About Me

My photo
Hi there everyone! I've noticed that a lot of people have a little life story on their blogs. So, always wanting to keep up with the latest BLOG trends, I've decided to put on a little blurb about my life for anyone that's interested. BUT, so no one is bored or has heard it all, I've put MY LIFE in ORIGINAL story form... Once upon a time there was a brown eyed girl, born of goodly parents, who set out on a journey. She traveled for a very VERY long time, through desert, mountains and forests and along the way she brought with her 6 wonderful treasures. But, alas, there were dark times, battles and dragons along the way, but she kept on going, with her treasures giving her strength and direction. Then in the desert, she met a blue eyed handsome prince, who had also been on a long long journey, and he had 2 treasures. So as you might have already guessed the ending.... the brown eyed girl and the blue eyed prince along with their treasures and a bunch more treasures, lived very happily ever after! Life is GOOD! It's party time now!
