Get one of these too, lots more leverage to loosen your nuts….
I have had a t bar in my trunk since about 1993 after I had a flat on 55 where it splits to the Atlantic City Express way. Could not loosen any nuts without it.
As for the baby hydraulic jack, I bought one of those when I saw it at harbor freight for 25 or so at the time. Was planning to rotate my own tires cheap. Damn thing wouldn't fit under the car to jack it up. Weighed so much I muscled it in the space behind where you could not see in the basement before I moved. Thought about using it as a boat anchor but it would have leaked badness in the water.
 
OMG! They had such a strong two person in the room policy… even on a Sunday afternoon! Althey I am getting to schemalizing how to do it….
Is he in a private room? It's a bit easier that way.

When I was working bedside, I would always let patients' pets in. Once this sweet spaniel jumped right up onto her daddy's bed and snuggled up to him. It made him feel so much better!
 
I learned how to change a tire/tyre by watching my father change one when I was 6 or 7 years old.

I remembered which compartment the jack was stashed in the back of my SUV.

And yet - that simple, skinny little hand jack does sweet fuck all when you need to actually change a tire.

Thank goodness for the kindness of strangers who will stop and help when they see a single female doing their best on the side of the road.

If not for the sheriff's deputy and random mechanic that both stopped to assist that hot summer day in 2018, I am pretty sure I would still be on the side of the road saying, "Just once more and we'll have it." :ROFLMAO:

If I had an engineering degree, I would make my millions by creating a pocket-sized hydraulic jack that fits in the back of a car without taking up any more room than a spare tire/tyre would.

Because surely in this day and age we have the technology and know-how to make that happen!!
*stamps foot for emphasis*

And although my jack would be in basic matte black, I would even insist that we make a model in pink ...with glitter!! IYKYK
Thank you! 💞✨
 
I had a dream this morning just before I woke up that I was driving over Schooleys Mountain near where I live. It was snowing as I was driving, it wasn’t necessarily treacherous, but I was going to moderate speed and cars were piling up behind me. Typical jersey drivers in their SUVs. They think they can drive fast and stop just as fast.

As I was coming off the hill and into Hackettstown, I noticed that there was a car who had driven off the road. I stopped to help them, and it was none other than Sir Mick Jagger!
Were his first words "Start Me Up?"
 
Mahogany is gorgeous wood! Dark for my tastes, however.
It looks a little red too me too. I would say walnut or oak are my faves with a mid tone brown stain... no red not to dark not too light. I hate my floors. They picked this ashy mix of dark and light stripe-y stuff

Well dont hate but dont like either. Carpet is tan with a tont of apricot.... whoever picked this was not fashion forward
 
The folks that stopped and helped me were wonderful.
Zero serial killer vibes!
Win Column!
There was just no help from that anemic, little jack that came w/ the car. :rolleyes: 😂


Wat was coming back home upon the interstate one Friday afternoon and passed 5 wimminz sorting out changing the left rear tire on their car. They were fairly far up on the shoulder, which was good. So, being the Saintly Sort that Wat naturally is, he pulled over onto the shoulder and backed back to where they were. They ranged in age from 18 to 60-something. As Wat changed the tire, they told him they were on their way to see Kenny Rogers. They attempted to force a 10-spot onto our Saintly Soul and hero of this tale. He declined, of course, knowing that there is no Charity in H000ring, or verse visa. He wished them well and hoped that they'd enjoy the concert.
