Cleaning

by on Apr.20, 2006, under General

My apartment was in DIRE need of cleaning (seeing as how I am the only one that cleans really). Setting aside the money to purchase a vacuum has been on the list of things to do since my old one let me know, in no uncertain terms, that it had had enough of this sucking up dirt thing and was retiring.

Since the parents are coming for a visit, and my carput was about 80% saturated with cat litter, I figured that now was a good time to pick up a new vacuum. I decided that while my last $60 vacuum did well enough for an apartment, it obviously bit the dust a little bit sooner than I would have liked. I therefore purchased one that was a bit mor expensive (but not on the high end of the scale at all) and it really does make a difference. This new vacuum pulled up the kitty litter with no problem, and that was before I realized that there was a seperate switch to turn on the carpet beater/comb. It also has a cannister that pops out for easy disposal of the trash, versus a bag, and I found out how really nasty our floors were. *bleh*
