From the old days...


 I have published this before, but it has been quite a while ago...probably 10 yrs or longer.  I had to hunt for something to post.  Since fall is approaching I thought this fit.                                                                                                                           ******************

Ever since Karen at Life is Good got her cordless vacuum and liked it, I have been thinking about one.  I finally did it.  I got one...not just like hers but a Dyson.  It came yesterday, and I LOVE it.  I got mainly for the hardwood floors part of the downstairs, and also the study and the formal dining room.  Both have carpet but have to vacuum around a lot of stuff.  Not a lot of carpet area to vacuum.

I tell you it is a game changer for me.  I love the thing.  But, I did attempt to vacuum this living room...using the strongest vacuuming setting.  The battery died right before I got done.  But it is a really big living room so I am not too upset.  I had did what amounted to all the other on one charge, and it did fine.  I had wondered if the weight would bother me, it weighs almost 6 lb...but I think it is easier than the upright.  And sure is easier to get into tighter spots.

I know it is early days, and I may change my mind.  But it was quicker and easier to do it.  With the other vacuum, I have to deal with moving the cord 3 times...and it is heavier to push.  Though I will probably still use it on the living room.
