I have a clean car!

I crawled home under sunny brilliant blue skies slowly  so I could avoid growing snow-melt puddles.  It has been since October that I my car has had this much shine, since I could see the real color, since the floor mats were not laden with snow melt and sometimes ice.

Oh...yah, I can see out the windows and the dash minus dust reflects and glistens.  And, did I mention that my car is clean because a friend gave me a birthday present of a full-service car wash at a place near downtown that runs cars through like a manufacturing assembly line? The staff are like ants bustling from the moment they had you the "tag" to when the "finisher" puts a towel on the floor so that the newly cleaned floor mats would still be clean when I drove away. Gratefully this young woman asked if she could add "freshner."  Quickly, I replied, "no thanks, this is just great." Yikes, just thinking about that sweet chemical stuff makes me sneeze and my nose plug!

Now I could have run some errands before coming home, but I just need to be able to see it looking like this for more than a few hours.  Such a simple joy to savor with the bonus that spring is just around the corner, each day provides more and more and more daylight.  The is so much to smile about... ... ...
