So, what is it about blogging that makes people tell the whole world weird things? And even more importantly, why do other people read it?

I really can’t say much because I’m in both those categories.

When I read about Shannon’s carnival I thought, “Why not? The Suburban needs cleaned anyways.”

So here is the list of what I removed from our family truck.

1. Pencil – still sharpened amazingly.
2. Clifford ball cap
3. 3 empty drink bottles – from this very afternoon, really.
4. Dishcloth – doesn’t everyone keep one in their vehicle?
5. 2 blank and empty CD cases – about these I have no clue.
6. 3 empty plastic bags – from 3 different stores even.
7. 1 empty bread bag and the twisty to close it
8. 1 used tissue
9. 1 used napkin
10. Parking ticket from the Farm Show
11. Little girls white barrette
12. 2 unopened straws – they were quite bent.
13. Date card from inside a library book due back Mar 27 – no book though.
14. Little girls headband – obviously things come off my children’s heads during car rides.
15. Empty key chain – this one is my fault, I remember switching keys.
16. Papers including a shopping list, gas receipt and directions; even 7 sheets of blank copier paper.
17. Lollipop stick

These things stayed in the truck. I didn’t include the glove box or storage compartment between the front seats.

1. Stroller – necessity.
2. Umbrella – goes without saying.
3. Ice Scraper and Brush – if it stays in year round we know where to find it.
4. Small air compressor
5. 2 board books
6. My sunglasses and 3 children’s sunglasses.
7. Mint gum – yet to be chewed.
8. Pair of black gloves – for working? I’m actually not sure whose they are or what they are from so I stuffed them back under the seat.

There you have it. Whether you wanted to or not.

There wasn’t anything too gross. That’s one prize I’ll gladly take a pass for.
