Car Wash

Last Saturday my church Youth Group had a car wash in the Wal-Mart parking lot. When I got there,there was already kid and some adults there from the morning shift of the car wash. Right away I got a rag and started washing a car. I soon found out that you had to rinse the car with water,clean the car with the soap,so the tires and then rinse all that off. A while later I started to get the routine of things. Mrs. F was always telling someone to get something or clean something. So I playfully started calling her Sergeant F. A hour later the seventh grade boys started playing around by taking sponges fully loaded with suds and water and flinging them at the kids working There was two older girls who were helping,they were wearing jeans. I mean who in the world wears jeans to a car wash?!?! I guess they didn't know that jeans soak up water and then they stick to you. Eric for some odd reason decided to put suds on his face so he would look like Santa Clause. I asked him if he knew where those suds had been "He said in the bucket". I was thinking more on the alines of "In dirty water where germs are floating but whateva". Also I was thinking sooner or later one of these boy s are going to get some soap in their eyes because they are messing around. It was funny when Eric started complaining to his Mom that he had soap in his eye. Eric's Mom said "I have no sympathy at all to you because you got soap in your eyes due to the fact That you put suds on your face". I was sing that song called "I Told You So Nany-Nany-Boo,Boo". A little while later John gave some of those mischevious boys a bucket to go "beg" at the front of Wal-Mart. It technically wasn't begging,just standing there asking for donations so we can go to M-Fuge. The "begging" boys raked in about fifty bucks. Those of us who were washing cars made about 1,000 some buckaroos.
