An Upgrade? Not.

Car wash yeah!

Whitey, our car is long overdue of a much needed wash and vacuum. Even engine wash and tire black is needed. However, I can't seem to find time to do it. Actually, I can but I am too lazy to go out. I feel like I am needed here at home to tend to the kids so the car is left unmaintained for long stretches of time. So, when I had extra time last Saturday morning, I washed the car, cleaned the tires and wiped the windows and windshield silly. I actually enjoyed it. If I had more time I would have vacuumed and wiped the inside of the car too.

Speaking of cars, I am looking for auto accessories so that Whitey will be pimped even for a bit. It doesn't look like a woman's car at all. I dunno, maybe a upgrade on its dash kits? Actually, what our Toyota needs right now is some new lighting covers. I broke the front right headlight cover a few months back. Although it is small, rain can come in and destroy the light if I don't get it fixed. So, that's noted.

What else? Ooh some spoilers and a new set of black Lexani forged wheels will definitely add a little oomph to our otherwise plain Toyota. However, why just do little upgrades here and there? Why not just buy a new one??? Well, if life is that simple why not. With all the payables this year and the ever so unstable economy, we simply can't afford that luxury just yet.

At this point, I am still happy with our Toyota. Granted that it is old, but it is still functioning and it works for us. I don't even use it often. The most is 2x a week. Sometimes, I just use it 2x a month!

I've saved so much in terms of gas bill. That's one of the perks of a WAHM (work-at-home-mom).
