Why I do this

Why do I do this? Plain and simple: being a 'slob' makes life harder. We lose things, we can't invite people over to our homes because of embarrassment. We destory things, even things valuable to us, because of  our disogranization and messiness. I can't tell you how many times my life has been hindered because I was too lazy to take care of something right away.  Why am I telling you this now? Because...
I bring my lunch to work. I have a pink lunch box and I pack my lunch either at night or that morning and that way I don't waste money buying a lunch everyday. Well, since I cleaned out my car, I've developed a sort of system. I put my purse of the floor of the passanger side- since I don't take this in with me- and I put the things I am taking on the passanger seat-mainly a lunch and a jacket.
So this morning was a particularly difficult morning and I knew I packed my lunch last night, so I didn't have to worry about packing it before work. Well, when I got to my car this morning, I put my purse on the floor and put my sweater on the seat and thought to myself, "what's missing?"
If I hadn't gotten responsible and cleaned out my car, I wouldn't have developed this pattern, and I wouldn't have noticed I forgot my lunch!
That would have been especially hard today, because I work at a grocery store. The days you do forget your lunch- no big deal, there's a whole store at your fingertips, but on Christmas eve day? The lines were miles long- (it was a hectic, awful day and I am soooo glad it's over) I probably wouldn't have had the time (nor do I ever have the money) to buy lunch today. I'm super happy I remembered.

P.S. I'm at my parents house tonight, for the holidays and all, and my father's keyboard is way weird. The keys are sticking and it's just not what I'm use to, so sorry it there are errors and misspellings. Plus, they have the slowest connection ever. Really? What in the world is up with there interent? How could they deal with this all day long? It's the worst.
So tomorrow, I go to my sister's house till Sunday night, so this will be my last post for a while. Happy holidays everyone!
