New
by Josh Kestner
I’m holding on for as long as I can before I buy new tires.
My tires are just old. My rear passenger-side tire is slowly leaking air. Every week or so, I have to fill up the tire to get it back to its baseline pressure. It’s cumbersome, but it’s easier (and cheaper) than replacing all four of my tires – at least for now. But I do dream of the day when my 15-year-old Toyota Avalon will have some shiny, new tires on it.
Are you waiting or wishing for something new in your life? What’s keeping you from getting it?
