Once A Year...

     Well, yesterday was a big day for the world of cleaning.  The adventure began around noon yesterday, as we began cleaning Travis' truck.  I do not know how long it has been since he cleaned his truck...  He has had it for 3 1/2 years now, and it looks like it was NEVER cleaned.  But, I know this is not the truth because I have helped him clean it before.  In fact, I remember scrubbing the backside of the backseats where caramel apples had been spilled.  Of course, that mess sat for several weeks, maybe months, before being cleaned up.  And, in fact, I had long since forgotten about the caramel apples...  But, I digress...



We vacuumed, threw away trash, organized, washed the truck at the self-service car wash, then went to a drive-thru car wash...  During the process, his boss called.  Travis told him, "Well, we're just washing my truck."  His response: "Once a year, whether it needs it or not, right???"  Wow!  Even in the short time that Travis has known his boss, he has apparently been able to get a pretty good feel for his 'messiness.' 



We drove the truck home -- I cleaned and "armor all-ed" the dash while Travis changed the oil...  Lucky him...  Anyway, I don't know how long this spotless truck will last, but we do have proof that it HAS been done.  Notice in the picture below -- what is missing???




No -- Travis is NOT the answer...  And, it is not the best QUALITY pic...  But, that is me vacuuming and there are no seats.  Travis had no problem taking this pic, but in no way contributed to the actual vacumming.  But, he did quickly send this picture to a couple of his best friends.  The quick reply from one of them, "Either she REALLY loves you, or she's getting ready to take it away from you."  Lucky for Travis, the answer is the former...  Not taking it away, not yet anyway!  :)
