The temperature was fifty-five degrees today and someone got a wild hair and decided to wash the vehicles. Including mine! First of all, it isn't much like him to wash a vehicle at all- and I believe this is the first time he has EVER washed mine. I think spring fever hit him.
It was difficult for me not to try to tell him how to do it. I managed to keep my mouth shut.
My Honda is an '03, but she still cleans up very nicely. It has been so nasty weather-wise with snow and ice and freezing temperatures that my car had not been washed in months. I cleaned the interior- vacuuming and cleaning the windows on the inside. Whoever thought of putting black velvet-like interior in a car never dreamed of having a Corgi riding shotgun. If she is in my car one time- even if I put a towel or sheet in beforehand, there is hair everywhere. And how do the windows get dirty on the inside when I haven't had the windows down, there are no children with fingerprints, usually it is just me. I love it when my car windows are clean and the sun shines in.
Afterward we took Chelsea out to the trail (in his truck- not my just cleaned car) and we walked five miles. We ran into two other Corgis on the trail! We've seen them before but not for a long time. Interesting how some Corgis look so different. They had one tri-color like Chelsea but she was so fluffy and had such long hair. I can't imagine. Chelsea's coat is bad enough. Has the spring shed started? I think so.
So between washing my car and cleaning the windows and taking a nice long walk in the sunshine, my outlook on life greatly improved today. I hope you had a sunny day, too!

It really was an incredible day yesterday, wasn't it? I grabbed my senior coffee, and hit the $5 car wash next door to McD's. Then, all three dogs, (2 corgis and MIL's Golden) went to the high school fields for a good romp. They all arced like porpoises in the snow, the Golden slide sideways making snow angels. What fun for all...I was doubled over laughing watching them. Then, I came home and moved furniture in the small bedroom/craft room. 'Twas a grand day lassie.
Can he come over and clean mine too!!hehheeehee!!A wonderful way to spend you sunny day!!Hugs,Cat
Hey Cheryl, Such a sweet "other-half" to wash your car. I don't know if I could agree with 55 degrees being warm . . just a tad cold for me still. You walk five miles . . good girl! Happy Sweets Day! Sandy:O)
Honda's a great car especially when it's shiny. We could use some heat here,
I have a Honda too - they are nice cars and do clean up nicely. Glad you had a great day to do it.

If Chelsea is already shedding than Spring is closer than we think! I sure hope so! I haven't noticed Jazz shedding yet. It's a tell tail sign around here. Once Jazz starts shedding her Winter coat than Spring is here!
Have a Great Day!
