Sunshine!!

The sunshine was finally out and WARM today! It was so nice. We went for a walk and it was as calming for Avery as it was energizing for me. I need to get out more. Oh, that warm sun on my face with the crisp air was just what my homebody needed.


I also tried to fix our vacuum today. It's so irritating. It's been on it's way out for a little while now and I keep saying when Costco puts the Oreck back in their deals, I'm gonna buy one...but then somehow out vacuum magically behaves...only to die out as soon as the deal expires! Demon vacuum. At first the switch stopped working and I would just plug it in and it would turn on regardless of the switch being on or off. A few days ago it finally died. I desperately needed to use it today so i pulled out the screw driver only to find on the inside ANOTHER on/off switch. Ah-ha...the culprit. That's pretty much as far as I got...so now I have a handle-less vacuum and half of a clean floor...(I did manage to jimmy-rig the inside switch in between the on/off position to clean half the carpet. I stopped once I started to smell burning wires.) Looks like I'm gonna buy a new vacuum tomorrow. It really is about time. Just a bummer I'll be spending more than I want to.
