Be Prepared

The Scouts had it right to make this their motto. The other day when I was merging from one interstate to the other my tire blew. Everything was okay-my husband was home to change the tire and take care of business (my hero!). That added about another 45 minutes to a day filled with activity. I had to go potty, but figured I would be home shortly. Needless to say, once the tire was changed and we were back on the road, the first order of business was to find a bathroom. The moral of the story is that whenever you have a chance to stop then stop. You never know what's in store for you--a traffic jam, a tire blow out, etc.
