keep my car clean

I threw out trash and re-organized the car on Sunday. It still needs to be vacuumed and washed. There are still some items in the back seat but I can get 3 people in the car if I need to now. The trunk is full of exercise clothes and accessories, bottled water and Dr. Pepper for work, and car maintenance stuff that I can’t discard. At least everything is organized and not strewn all over the place.

I’m doing fair at getting trash out but it’s books, gym clothes, shoes that get strung all over the place. Maybe I could try keeping a dirty clothes hamper in the back seat or something. I all ready have a box that is full of books. I just get busy and then all this junk goes all over the place. Or the front seat is full and someone needs to get in. Oops! It all goes into the back seat! Maybe I should try renting a locker at the gym.That would get some stuff out of the car.

I should be embarrassed but I’m not. It’s just the way it has always been. Some people call me a gypsy who keeps all her belongings in the car. I can’t seem to stay organized. There’s rarely space for someone to ride with me even in the passenger seat. Forget the back seat. I have so many things going on that it’s easier to throw stuff in the floor or back seat instead of dealing with it properly. I’m trying to throw trash away weekly. I’m trying to keep stuff I use often in boxes in the trunk. I can’t even remember the last time I vacuumed or had it washed. Probably a year or two ago. I’ve got to do better. I’m getting the house under control so it is time to keep the car cleaner, too. By this I mean clean longer than a week. That is usually the best I can do. It’s all part of becoming more mindful of my reality and not stay out drifting in the clouds like a space cadet. LOL Perhaps I should consider throwing out trash daily. It would be a step in the right direction.
