So there are all kinds of phobias, mine is the car wash, I know crazy, but it is true. When I was relatively new to the whole driving scene I took my car to get washed and tried to DRIVE trough the car wash instead of in neutral. I know not my most brilliant moment.
After I got married I let my husband take over the cars. I never had to take the car through the car wash and that was perfectly fine with me. However, as we prepared for his last deployment I realized the car wash would be my task once more. Now if it was up to me I would go to the car wash maybe once every three months. My husband on the other hands likes CLEAN cars so he tries to go once a week and at least every two weeks. Last deployment was three years ago and I had a grand jeep grand cherokee that had a sun roof. Well another brilliant car wash move I did was OPEN my sun roof during a car wash and got a lovely shower myself! That was an experience! And no I did not intentionally try this, I had realized as I started in to the car wash that my sun roof was open a little so meant to shut it. However I accidentally opened it instead of closing it.
Needless to say when my hubby returned from his last deployment I was more than happy to hand the car wash task back to him! So for a little over two years he has happily taken care of the cars. Now as we get close to the third deployment it's my turn once more to take over this mundane and scary task!
I must proudly say I went through the car wash this afternoon and did not have one mishap! There is hope for the smallest task that brings fear to us! It's a good thing I'm not to hard on myself :)
I just literally laughed out loud!!!! Still laughing...sorry, that's just way too funny about the sunroof! =)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to provide some laughter in your day! It's suppose to be healthy for you. And I'm glad that I can step back and laugh at myself with you, maybe not in that moment, but definately looking back :)
