VACUUM?!


ATTENTION ALL FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO OWN A VACUUM....

AS YOU ALL KNOW WE HAVE TWO LARGE DOGS THAT CONSTANTLY SHED NEW DOGS EVERY DAY---YOU MAY THINK I AM KIDDING BUT BY NOW HAD WE KEPT ALL OF THEIR SHEDDED HAIR WE WOULD PROBABLY BE ABLE TO MAKE A NEW MOVIE THAT WOULD RIVAL THE 101 DALMATIANS!!

WE NEED A NEW VACUUM CLEANER THAT ACTUALLY CLEANS/SUCKS UP DOG HAIR/DOES NOT REDISTRIBUTE DIRT......HELP!!!

ANY SUGGESTIONS?!

WE ARE WILLING TO SPEND SOME MONEY BUT DO NOT WANT TO HAVE TO TAKE OUT A LOAN OR SECOND MORTGAGE!!!

I AM INTERESTED IN PERSONAL EXPERIENCES...NO INFOMERCIALS PLEASE!!!

THANKS AND GIG'EM!! :-)


So far I have the following results:

Dyson---3 votes

Roomba--1 vote




Oh, by the way, does anyone need any Mary Kay for themselves or for Christmas gifts?! Placing an order THIS WEEK!!!

Obsessed 2

Forgot---READ TWILIGHT!!!

Yes, I know a lot of people are obsessed...but my 7th grade kiddos are into this so I started reading them and the series is GREAT!! The vampire thing was not really what I was looking excitedly for but there is a great moral value to this read.


I feel like I should be at an AA meeting, "Hi, I am Courtney and I like the book, Twilight...ok, AND Edward Cullen."


I did jump on the bandwagon--but truly, you should check it out.


I have NOT seen the movie....I would hate to ruin the book experience, but I have heard promising reviews from friends and family. My kids were all going to see it and they highly encouraged me to buy the soundtrack.




Obsessed!

Ok, so yes it has been a while!!!!!

Just had to quickly add that I am slightly obsessed with this great site Good Reads!!! http://www.goodreads.com/

If you have not signed up---DO IT!!! Yes, I said this in a slightly threatening voice...not to scare you but to encourage you to go check it out. I LOVE it because I can keep track of all the books that I have read/am reading/want to read. You can ask me to "become your friend" and we can then talk about all the books we read! I know, nerdy, but cool in my world.

I just want to give a shout out to Jennie---and the baby boy growing inside of her!!! Here is a bit of her blog which made me laugh out loud...thanks Jen for the smiles:

"One thing I hate about being pregnant is that bad moods are almost always blamed on hormones, and when someone cuts you off in traffic and you bitch about it, your hormones must be all out of whack. Sure, the hormones may help the rage along, I'll give you that, but it's also a very real possibility that the fucktard in the BMW should have waited until he could merge at a time when it wouldn't be my sole responsibility to keep us both alive. And, yes, crying over my never-ending work load may seem like a very pregnant reaction, but I can remember plenty of times when my work load brought me to tears before. Sometimes I'd love to sport a (very large) shirt that reads: Not Because I'm Pregnant but Because You're Stupid. "

LOVE IT!
