Thanks for sharing your story...It gives me hope I can do the same

Do like I did: in the comfort of your home "pretend" you have a flat. Just deflate one of your tires and treat is if it was flat - you just don't need a new tube. That way when it happens in real life, you've already gotten the steps down. Course, the one time I had to change a "real" flat, I had someone with me watching me and I became all thumbs. Prior to that the only ones watching me were the dog and 2 cats and They didn't care how long it took or the words I used while getting the tire back on! LOL
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"
