It's December wich means it's that time of the year when SNOW flakes cover the ground. Snow is a beautiful, it looks like a beautiful fleet blanket all over the ground. It's gentile and sometimes romantic. Until you have to drive around in it. Then the beautiful snow becomes a nuisance; And even a hazard.
Last week we had a pretty good snow storm and I felt pretty confident in my sturdy Yukon to drive around running my daily errands. Leaving my office to go home I found my self stuck in the gutter. The tires were spinning in place with no movement forward or back. I had kids in the car, I had cars behind me and if I didn't get out on the road quick enough I would be the cause of an accident.
I was racking my brain to think of anything to get me out of the gutter of sleet and snow. When I car pulled up and gave me a solution. He placed his jackets on the ground underneath my tires to give them some friction to grab on to. It worked like a charm. Immediately my son said "Mom! now you have a TipsyTuesday!"
So dear friends...todays TipsyTuesday is brought to you by the kindness of strangers and solution to being stuck in the snow.
My suggestion is choose a set of your lest favorite towels or visit your local good will store and keep them in the trunk of your vehicle for emergency situations.
I appreciated the strangers kindness in my hour of need and I intend to pay it forward.

I hope to never get in this situation, but I'm throwing some towels in the trunk just in case!
