DB gave in

Sunday, June 10th, 2007

After much complains from me and SD, DB finally gave in and  bought a new vacuum cleaner, a Dyson Animal DC17. 

 The first time I saw the Dyson ad on TV was about a year plus ago.  I wanted it but told myself that expensive sucker has to wait since we were still trying to restore our credit history.  I know DB liked the idea of bagless vacuum (don’t have to worry about buying and changing the bags) and dog hair really bugs the crap outta him.

Our old vacuum, a Hoover Windtunnel, is about 8 years old.  The Hoover is good but it is very heavy for me to carry it up and down the stairs.   Anyways, who likes to vacuum the stairs.  Man, I had doing the stairs. 

The Hoover sucks up dog hair but in order to thoroughly do a fine job, I have to vacuum the path a few times.  SD said our vacuum sucks to high heaven. 

On Friday, I sent DB an email and mentioned we should look into a different vacuum cleaner for upstairs.  Since I will be receiving my tuition reimbursement for my previous class this coming paycheck, I told him I will get another vacuum cleaner for upstairs.  I didn’t think of getting a Dyson; maybe another Hoover or Bissell.   Low and behold, DB said “Let’s get a Dyson and that way we know it’s a good vacuum.”

So we did on Saturday at Sears, his favorite store.

I’m happy with it.  That vacuum cleaner rocks.  It sucks good :)

It sucks so good it sucked up the threads from the rug and the thread wound around the  roller.  GD!! Couldn’t believe it. 

That’s me…..its something about me using a new toy. At least I got some of it out and the new toy is still working and I’m happy with the results.
