 My tire went flat last night when I got home  so my dad took it in to replace so I’m paying for a new tire today. I’m always paranoid that those things will happen when I’m out of town and no cel phone on me. So far I’ve had like two flats and they’ve lasted til I at least arrived home. I haven’t been stranded on the side of a road ... yet.It’s a really nice autumn day! You know, like sunny, yet cool breezes enough to freshen your house when you open the windows. It’s the best weather ever to get, I think!  __________________

Yeah, I do have that. I have to make sure I just always bring my battery full cel phone with me when I’m out and have the phone number in my car.
Meanwhile, I see my car is gone from the driveway (my dad must have took it in) but I’m wondering how they took the car? Did they get a tow truck? )__________________

That may have been it
 most likely if its got a flat and not able to drive on it - unless enough air to make it to where he needed to take it__________________

I dunno! It looked really literally flat last night when I left it, still hissing air!
 really don’t think it was drive-able.Man, this is really gonna cost me today for tow trucks and tire replacement + service! This is why I try to remember why I need to hardly buy frivolous things cause these things happen so unexpectedly! __________________

Well wouldn't tow truck be within the roadside assistance if you've got CAA or I remember my sister had it though her dealership related to when I was a supervisor having needed help for an unlock when she was pregrent with my first niece. CAA department couldn't help but they figured out my sister had coverage through the maunfacturer|dealership
When I use to do roadside assistance [American], in the same call center we had CAA dispatchers for our surrounding area and BELIEVE x amount of Kilometers free Granted still got the tire|service but would think the tow may be within whatever roadside assistance coverage you've got or most covered where would just have to pay for overage kilometers __________________

Leanne - I've never had a flat, but as Sarah mentioned, at least you're stranded at home. Some credit cards offer free roadside assistance.
even when I've just ate, going outside and smelling somebody else BBQing makes me hungry all over again.Sarah - how are you? Had a nice fall colours drive today. Probably the last time we'll get out for that this year. The colours seem to have passed their prime. __________________

yes, the leaves are really starting to fall now. It's supposed to get really windy this afternoon, so you'll probably have some more to deal with tomorrow. __________________

Ended up my tire wasn’t actually flat but the screw was undone so they fixed the stent?
 so anyway, apparently my tire is full again and seemingly fine. Just glad that was done at no charge and I didn’t have to buy a new tire! Shows what I know about flat looking tires. The fall colours are still around here and this sunny for the foreseeable future too and I had air conditioning on in the car was warm!__________________

 No charge is definitely nice. And it's much better that you notice the tire and have it fixed rather than keep driving and potentially do further damage.I'm trying to figure out what to do with all of mom's things when we clear out her current room. She won't have near as much space when she moves. __________________
