Got a new vacuum today!!! I am sooo excited!!! So excited that I vacuumed and now feel even crappier! oh well…at least it works on dog hair. our old vacuum has not being done much lately but annoying me! this was my belated b-day present from Dean….we got our tax money and he told me once we did I could get a new vacuum. the canister feature is awesome, esp. since as a whole the vacuum is heavy. so doing the steps is easier for me. well off to rest now that the house is sufficiently vacuumed and laundry is going. Hoping to go get some other new things tonight. I also bought a ton of AA batteries so that toys the kids havent been able to play w/ that should make noise and do cool things actually do. theres a blues clues chicka chicka boom boom dog we have and Bo has liked playing w/ it and that was before it sang and talked to him! It’s kind of like them getting new toys since they havent worked like they should. Much cheaper than buying new toys that we dont even need too! well my throat is killing me and I’m exhausted..hoping to lay down for a few minutes.
