Accomplishment


I’m covered in grease, my hands are sore, arms tired, and my fingers hurt like never before. But today I changed a flat tire on my bike… all by myself. Booya!!


this was about half way through, it got a little messier (and painful) as I went along

Yes, I did try to get a bolt off by turning it the wrong way. Yah, I almost threw the wheel across the room trying to get the tire off. And I might have come close to tears when I couldn't get that pesky little wire in the right place for the shifters. But I did it and yes, I'm rather proud of myself!

So now I can finally go on my ride! Except, after all that... I'm kind of tired. Maybe I'll ride tomorrow?
