Wednesday's Whetting

===-===-===-===-===

Okay I've got my challenge. And it's a fitting WW challenge because I really need and want to do this, but I keep putting it off because--- I really, really don't want to do this.

Make Sense?

THE CHALLENGE THIS WEEK:

Clean my van.

Not just throw away receipts (okay okay, and numerous candy bar wrappers) and vacuum. I mean; rent the upholstery cleaner, take the seats out, use Q-tips to get every nook and cranny, like I'm selling the thing. I mean, CLEEEEAN.

My car needs some serious, SERIOUS attention. I realize I could take my vehicle to some place, and pay someone else to do the dirty work (and I mean dirty) for me. But I just wrote out a heavy check to the A/C guy and my windshield is in need of replacing (that's two kaCHINGs! folks), so I just don't feel like forkin' out the extra dough on something I can do myself.


Besides, using a little elbow grease once in a while never hurt anybody.
Right?


So that's it. By Wednesday (preferably by Saturday evening) My car will sparkle. This one is going to feel sooooo nice when it's done!

Nothing better than a clean car. Too bad I don't do it that much:)

I uhh... still have a breakfast burrito from McDoland's in my car from the day I drove up to Portland (sorry dad). So I have no room to judge a sullied car.
