$500 Karma lesson

Last night, I got a little laugh when Hubby's ex's car broke down for the second time in a month. Well, that little laugh came back to haunt me this morning.

I am driving to work, taking a back road and am thinking to myself that either this road is really bumpy or I have a flat. I turned a corner and it got 10x worse. Turns out my tire was completely flat. Not only that all my tires are bald. So I just shelled out $500 for a new set. Love those unexpected expenses right around the holidays. Karma kicking me in the ass.

Silver linings about all this: My flat tire happened right in front of a full service gas station. They did a temp fix so I was able to go home, get my knitting and head to a tire store where I got an hour and a half of knitting in!

  • Tag, you are "it" (well, one of 6 "its", to be specific). See my blog for the meme.

    Just think how much more pissed you would have been if you weren't a knitter, and would have had to spend your time waiting in the shop reading old hot rod magazines.
