Perhaps I should just get a Roomba.



I spent a good part of my day doing laundry and cleaning. And by cleaning, I mean the never ending vacuuming of dog hair that is everywhere. And the never ending dusting, wiping and vacuuming of the dust that rides in on the dogs from the back yard. It will never ever ever ever ever end. Ever. Never. Well, unless...(we won't go there, but it doesn't necessarily involve dogs going "to live on farms"...they are, technically, Hannah's dogs.)

When I return to gainful employment and become loaded again, I have decided that I should hire a housekeeper to come in and just vacuum and dust. All the time.

Until such time as I have someone to do my dirty work for me, perhaps I should just get a Roomba? Despite the fact that Consumer Reports says that "robotic vacuums are best for their novelty and low effort between regular vacuuming in uncluttered rooms. But they’re expensive as a group and time-consuming to set up and run. Most also tended to miss edges and corners in our tests. Price $200 to $1,800." Still...the idea of letting something roam around the room vacuuming dog hair is pretty appealing.

I just got a bissell that will suck the hair off of your head. You need me.

If only I knew who you were...I suppose I could get my own bissell.
