It’s the Little Things in Life…

This weekend, we bought a new vacuum, and I couldn’t be happier! The way my family was admiring the new vacuum’s box upon arriving at home, you’d think it was a brand new car. My oldest was ohing and awing while absentmindedly rubbing the box. I couldn’t wait to get that puppy out of the box! And the baby couldn’t wait to get into the box.

Let me explain why were we were so thrilled about the new family appliance. We have an old Dirt Devil that smells to the high heavens every time you use it. When I say “smells to the high heavens”, I mean it smells like human vomit, stinky diapers, etc… It also didn’t really do such a good job…poor suction. We just want things to work properly! Any way, we’d have to be sure to vacuum at least two hours before any guests were to visit – so we could get that putrid smell out!

I will admit I was a tab bit jealous that my husband got to use our new toy first. He always gets to go first!

Last night, I vacuumed my dining room with a smile on my face, and pride in my heart.

It’s the little things in life that can make you the happiest sometimes.
