Vacuum Cleaners

Okay, I'll just say it...I love VACUUM CLEANERS!! I use them every day, in some way. This is "Big Red." I keep it plugged in in the garage and use it constantly. I vacuum the dirt from the boys baseball uniforms up, the dirt and debris that it's in the garage before it gets into the house, and I use it outside in the flowerbeds and porch. It's so much easier that sweeping and then putting the junk in the trash...I just wait until the giant red bucket is full, and pour it into the green waste can. Love it.
These are my floor vacuums. The one on the left is for the carpet...duh...and the red one is for the hardwood and tile. The red one I use almost everyday, it picks up Molly's food bits...she's messy. Love them!
Okay, this is my least favorite, but I still use it.
Small vacuum for the cars...
Floor sweeper for a quick clean-up if someone's coming over in one minute...
Does anyone know of a Vacuum Anonymous meeting in my area?? I think I have a problem...

Stop and Smell the Roses







I am so excited that my flowers are starting to bloom. I love to be in the garden...one of my favorite places. I have a small rose area in my back yard that was planted by the previous owner, I gently pruned and fertilized and they finally started to bloom last year. It is extremely gratifying when the rose buds start to show. Summer will be here soon!!
