when all you want to do is stay all nuggled up in bed and let the steady pitter patter of the rain make you feel comfortable....ok that lasted about 10 am this morning. I how I hate mornings - I'm not really a morning person...I've just learned to comform to the outside world because there is not a job that I can get doing what I do that starts in the afternoon.
So what's my plan for the day....my husband suggested a movie....we went last night and saw Flight 93...it was emotional and I think I relived the same feelings I had that day. It just makes you think more about that day. Ok...side tracked...my dog broke her collar this morning when she came back in and shaking off the water....it's at least 3 years old...I can't remember when Josie wandered into our lives....she just seems like she's been here forever.....ok....side track 2.
I had to go Pet Smart to get a new collar. Of course they didn't have the same one that I bought so long ago. So I found on that was colorful on black and it looks ok. I think I can still use the lease I got. (yes, I'm one of those who matches collars and leases!!)
Next, Sam's...I was just going to run in there and get pickles and olives....but ended up staying there for about an hour.....I got laundry stuff, two rose bushes, drinks, shampoo, pickles and olives -- dessert for tonights meeting (apple cobbler). I think I was all over the store...I also looked at vacumn cleaners...and one I almost got.
A new vacumn cleaner was my main mission for today. My old one doesn't suck anything and I've tried cleaning it and replacing filters with no luck. I think it's terminal. Well, what should I expect. Almost every year I have to get another vacumn cleaner which I usually get it from Walmart of Kmart. So it's usually not a real expensive one. So I thought this is a good time to really invest in a cleaner that I don't have to replace every other year.
So next on my list, Sears...I had looked online and they seemed to have better prices then Lowes' & homedepot. There was actually a sales rep there to ask all kinds of questions. I looked at 2 models. So she let me try both out on the rug. That pretty much made up my mine which one I wanted....now I should make it pretty clear....I really don't vacumn very much. I have a cleaning lady that does that once a month. Occassionally when there is a mess on the floor, I'd use it. The biggest example of when I use it, is around the litter box. Heidi doesn't always keep her litter in her box!
Excitment of opening the box and taking each part out. The new clean smell. I had to play with all the parts to make sure I knew how to use each thing. After reading the manual (yes, I always read the manual!) I had to play with it so I pluged it in and vacumned the kitty litter area and the back door rug. Boy, it really does work and emypting the canister was really easy. So, maybe I made a good decision. I'm going to be paying for it for the next six months. Now I just hope my cleaning lady likes it! ha
