While changing the tires of my car was the skill that was difficult for me to learn. But at last I was happy I did. Because some time ago, what I do when the tireres are, uh, sports or when they go down, I’ll, uh, call my husband to come and change it for me, even if it did not happen within the compound. But, uh, this day I taught it twice to learn how to change it. Parave sure. He traveled and not in town, so I called one man that was around there. He changed it. I asked him to watch me change it because for several times I’ve been watching my husband do it. So. So the man allowed me. I was able to lose the tires and, uh, you know, change it and put the right one. Then after that, he assigned it and said that it was okay. Since then, I’ll, uh, been. And that was, I’ve been changing the tires. And that was about five years ago that I learned the skill of, you know, changing my tyres without any hustle. And I’m happier I did because at least I’ve relieved my husband of, uh, that job of calling him out to come just to change tires. And, um, I’m now more confident that if paraveventually happens again, I can easily do it without, you know, beconning on anybody than.

While changing the tires of my car was a skill that was difficult for me to learn, I am happy I did. Some time ago, when the tires were flat or went down, I would call my husband to come and change them for me, even if it did not happen within the compound. One day, I decided to learn how to change them myself. My husband was out of town, so I called a man who was nearby. I asked him to watch me change the tire because I had been watching my husband do it for several times. The man allowed me to try, and I was able to loosen the tires and change them, putting the right one on. After that, he checked my work and said it was okay. Since then, I have been changing the tires myself. That was about five years ago when I learned the skill of changing my tires without any hassle. I am happier I did because I have relieved my husband of that job of coming out just to change tires. I am now more confident that if it happens again, I can easily do it without relying on anybody.
