Drove into a space at Sainsburys just as my front tyre bursts. Very friendly people tried to help me but it won't reinflate. Have absolutely no tyre changing skills DD2 screaming and DD1 due to finish nursery...
Panic. Have to leave car there to get home. (No pram of course so carrying giant DD2 who is nicknamed Chunk for a reason!)
Sent lovely stepdad to change the tyre, except wheel nut locked or something like that, so impossible.
AA can't come out for hours, Sainsbury's annoyed at me leaving my car. (Especially parked in coveted P&C!)
Never mind, FIL to the rescue. He will go to sainsburys and try to placate them and get his Greenflag people to come now. Except his ancient micra breaks down on the bloody way!!!!!
AA phones and can come now, except FIL has the key now and is of another age and hasn't fully charged his mobile phone in years days. So he now appears to be uncontactable. Of course.
Sainsburys is currently in the midst of tearing down carpark structures so I absolutely cannot leave my car there all night. Shit. No idea what to do about that...
Doorbell rings, it's absolutely lovely cousin dropping by for a chat. While I'm regaling her with the car saga, my dog steals her shoe. Her very expensive shoe and has literally eaten half of it. Shit.
Apologising profusely, I am interrupted by a scream from DD2, who has fallen over backwards while cruising and has hit her head on the stone hearth of the fireplace. Damn damn damn. A&E?? Except no car...
Luckily lovely cousin is a nurse and thinks she will be fine.
Walk her out to her car, barefoot in solidarity (felt rude to rub it in and say 'let me just get my shoes!') And step on a fucking WASP!!!!
Hobble in tears into the kitchen and sit on the side to look at my foot. It really kills but I get the little stinger out and throw it down the sink.
DD1 is clearly intrigued by my sitting position, tries to climb up on the side and pulls a stool over onto herself.
No car.. (Or car solution!!) Angry friend. Shoe bill. Pissed off Sainsburys customer services. FIL missing presumed lost. Stepdad late for work. Unexpected shoe bill. Egg like bump on DD2. Purple cheek on DD2. Swollen foot.
I need wine.
