Today I’m grateful for a clean car.

I got my car washed today. I cleaned out the extra stuff that I’d been carrying around in my backseat and trunk – 2 sweaters, several books, 4 gourds, a pocket chart and a broken umbrella, to name a few. I threw away receipts and straw wrappers and I recycled empty water bottles. I vacuumed it out and wiped down the dashboard and console too.

It’s been a busy fall, and at times I’ve felt like I’m practically living out of my car. My messy car was feeling like a mobile office and it was starting to stress me out. So today I tackled it. And holy cow -- do I ever feel better!?!

I know my car will get messy again. I’m sure by mid-week I’ll have an empty water bottle in the backseat and breakfast crumbs on the floor mats. But for now, I’m sure going to enjoy the simple pleasure of my clean car and the clear state of mind it will bring me.
