This day needs a do-over

And one that starts out better than the one we had started.  Hubby went to load the laundry in the pickup and found we had a flat tire. Fan-freaking-tastic. So we're thinking we're going to have to use money out of the fund we've been working on to tide us through the shutdown in February. Get to the mailboxes, and we have a $200 gift card from my Mom. She can't afford that kind of thing, and we told her not to, but it's a blessing that she did. It bought the new tire, barring 56 cents. Other than that, the day went good, and basically normal, but the frustration and worry from the early hour or so just has me wiped. I'm so glad today is over and we are home. I'm off to an early bedtime.
