When the procrastination stops…
I’ve been telling myself for weeks and weeks now (or maybe months?) that I need to clean out my car. It’s a DISASTER in there. Drinks spilled on the passenger mat and went over onto the carpet and it’s been accumulating for weeks. Garbage, fries, dirt, dust, YUCK! Finally today I thought to myself “I’ve had enough, I’m cleaning this damn car today!”
I spent 2 hours after work cleaning that darn thing. I used hot soapy water with some hardcore cleaner and scrubbed that wet sticky mess, then vacuumed up the water and did it over and over again. Finally I think I got it as good as it would get. I cleaned the dash, took out all the garbage, vacuumed from hood to trunk, wiped, polished and made that thing SHINE. I swear that interior never looked so good. Haha Now for the outside….
I am definitely a procrastinator, but damn does it feel good to get things like that done. :D

I know how you feel, I’m horrible for that. Absolutely horrible – but the results once you get going are usually amazing. I hate cleaning cars though >.< especially my mom's. She's so picky…
I know what you mean. My car is a complete disaster. I spilled some sweet tea in there last week and I just haven’t had the time to completely get it cleaned up. :/ I know the floor over there has to be sticky. I just hate cleaning the car! But I’ll have to get it done this weekend I guess.
Next time take a before/after photo! My car (which I’m rarely in anymore) probably needs to be cleaned inside as well. Pointless to do the outside right now considering the weather.
No matter how hard I try, no matter how spotless I get it, my truck ALWAYS ends up being a complete disaster. Its awful. I hate it. It’s like a portable bedroom, clothes everywhere, food wrappers, cups, shoes, etc, etc.
