I had a push broom in my car three days
I had intended to sweep Emily's garage floor, so I put the broom in my Honda. That was Monday. I took it out today, because I have a zoo day tomorrow.
I just thought it might look funny to have a push broom in my Civic. The broom is kind of big, and my Honda is kind of small.
But there is another issue going on here. Why do I take such lousy care of my cars?
I have had the Honda since November and have not washed it or vacuumed it yet. I should have waxed it, but I have not. Tonight I pulled out napkins, notes, receipts, an empty coffee cup....and the broom.
I opened the trunk and took out the mower gas container carrier. Ever since the unfortunate 2 gallon spill in my last Honda, I have carried the gas can in a Tupperware container. I don't want to make the same mistake as last year, which ended up in a new car.
I went to DeKalb today and could not see out the windshield. There was a film on the inside, and the outside must have a bug magnet. I cleaned it....maybe for the first time. Hopefully tomorrow the glare won't be bad and I'll see the road better.
I left the shoe (I am sure there are two, but I only saw one), shorts, bike helmet, water bottle, and six pens that seem to have accumulated.
I know I am bitchy....but I don't understand how I can have messes like that! My car, the garage, my basement storage area, computer desk...all look like some kind of paper/dust monster regurgitated on it, or in it, and walked away.
This weekend I have a a goal: vacuum my Honda. It's not a big goal, but it's a start.
Understand I clean bathrooms every week and they are spotless. I dust regularly, clean the floors several times a week, keep the kitchen fairly neat.....but other areas just get ignored.
Like the car.
I need to show that baby a little love.
