New Addition!

It was a bitter cold weekend here again. Temps were below zero during the day and well below zero during the night. The wood furnace got a good work out indeed and kept the house nice and toasty. There's nothing like wood heat and...the best perk are the warm floors, allowing me to run around barefoot if I feel like it.

Dan and I braved the bitter cold Sundy afternoon and headed to Lowe's to purchase a new vacuum cleaner since the old one was definitely not doing it's job any longer. It was a case of "you get what you pay for", being a rather inexpensive model. This time I chose an Electrolux Versatility upright. Never had one of that brand before but have used an older model elsewhere and was always impressed with it's cleaning power. Besides...I liked the colors - a lime green accented grey. It works great! No problem getting under the low tables in the living room without having to move them any longer. What a treat that is! And it's so easy and convenient to use. Definitely a 5 star item. Almost hard to fathom I'd get so excited about a vacuum... I took the picture in the little sitting/reading corner we made near the patio doors.

Great looking Vac - I can relate to the excitement of a new vac (sad but true)
