This Is A Work Truck!



I used to do lady like things like embroidering dainty little flowers and dusting what nots but I've started a new project. When we stop at the drive-thru to order my vanilla iced coffee to sip on at the ranch the pretty little thing at the window can look straight down into a pit of trash and dirt. She must think we grew up in a pig sty sooo yesterday I had John stop at the car wash so I could use their big monster vacuum. My little piddling vacuum wouldn't stand a chance with that peanut field in the floor board. I've had experience with those monsters before. I bought one and ended up fighting to keep my curtains. Me on one end and the monster on the other and me with the thought it was going to suck me up to never never land to never be seen again. Anyway John's work truck is now clean and there is nothing growing on the floor board. I wiped everything down and there was enough dust to write a book just on the dashboard. Tomorrow I'm going to tackle the bed. There is no telling what I may find in the scraps of hay and dirt. I know there are tire irons, staples, hammers, well we'll see. The thieves won't even dirty their hands to pick up anything out of there. Now that it is going to be clean if someone steals anything I'm going to be in deep----- trouble because a clean work truck is not John's cup of tea. I just can't wait to pull up to the drive- thru and see the look on the cute young thing's face when she thinks there is a new couple in town.

I hope you can get that truck bed really clean. Hopefully no one will steal the now exposed tools. Helen

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, you are one brave woman. Now John won't be able to find a thing."Where is the Hammer? It is always in the corner with the cups and hay!!!"

Yep, messes a man's mind up!

But it is a great entry, report the look on the young lady's face!

Thomas' Trooper is much like that. It's his work truck, fishing truck, and hunting truck, so it rarely gets vacuumed or wiped down, although we do spray it off once in a while! lol

I'm laughing so hard I think I may have to change. LOL, you are a hoot! I have learned to let Bill do his own cleaning, but I understand about the work truck...sometimes I have a hard time leaving things where they are, the poor guy claims he can't find a thing after I've cleaned.
LOVE your header and the side pics. SO TX!

Thanks for your prayers...they work!
