And successful lauch of Atlantis!
Woot!!!
Oh, man, speaking of swine flu possibly, I saw the STUPIDEST thing yesterday. My neighbor riding her bike wearing a face mask but NO HELMET! Idiot. I don't know her but if I'd been close enough I seriously would have said something (even though it's none of my business ha!).
Oh, msbelle! My neighbor (not the stupid one, the antique dealer) re-covered the part of the bench that had the rip with black vinyl and sold it almost immediately! (Turns out she has a space in an antique mall in the neighborhood.) The girl who bought it was going to put it on lay-away but she checked her bank balance there at the store and decided she could take it right away. She was that excited about it! So, YAY! it's gone to someone who will love it. And raised money for charity! I told her I'd bring her the chair by after my ride, if that's okay with you, sara.
No problem, it's just sitting in my basement, keeping the cleaning supplies company.
and for good meansure, stay gold, ponyboy
Emmett's reading The Outsiders now; I'm waiting for him to finish it so I can tell him to stay gold.
I need to paint unicorns on their faces.
I'm not sure if it'll work without the rainbow and ribbons.
No Roomba advice?
I don't think they are that effective as the only vacuum cleaner in the house. But maybe it would be if you don't have 2 cats and a dog and lots of long hair and an old house. I've been thinking about getting a reconditioned Dyson actually. I haven't been able to find bags for my old, kinda shitty, vacuum cleaner recently and I have a boyfriend with allergies moving in! I haven't quite been able to pull the trigger on the purchase yet.
Also, if your rugs have tassles/fringe, it'll be an issue.
I'm gonna start using mine again soon , but it is really more a maintenance clean than a regular clean. Gets the kitty litter and the un-occasional dust rhino.
My god, how many typos were in my earlier post??
My current vacuums are less than ideal for the surfaces I have now. My broom vac kinda hates the old wood floors. My brush vac is doing better on those floors but it's ability to get cathair out of the carpet is declining. It's annoying.
