My 15 For Today is going to be cleaning out my purse. Getting rid of those receipts that are so important that I keep but never so much as glance at again. Usually when the boys are taking their lessons, I read, but today I'm going to take 15 minutes to clean out my purse. What will you do? Let me know!!
My purse is under control. My car is not. I like to comfort myself by saying that if we were ever stuck in a snowstorm and couldn't move for three days, there are enough crumbs to keep all of us alive. Various water bottles and other miscellaneous liquids are also hiding under seats. We're all set.
But still, one really must do something to try to get a handle on this before the snow sets in. I hate vacuuming the car, but it's been raining everyday practically for the last month, so it never seemed like an ideal time. Meanwhile, the car's getting worse. I'm just praying for sunshine so we can do it soon. Otherwise we'll likely wait until the spring, and that definitely won't be a pretty picture!
Today I spent a good portion of the afternoon praying my windows would not blow in (see my recent blog). But I did get a huge stack of clothes sorted and ready to be donated. Took about 15 min. I suppose. Hey, I'm doing it! Thanks for the encouragement!
