o.c.d.
I vacuumed the tree mess, ejected all holiday from the house, dusted, wiped, scrubbed, and polished. I vacuumed the entire house three times and swfffered the wood floor countless more times. This place should be *spotless*.
I am still finding glitter. @#%$!!! I hate, hate, HATE glitter!! I am spotting tiny damn sparkles as I walk around the house. I try to pick it up every time I spy a piece. It’s driving me mad. I hate the glitter ornaments! I always swear that I won’t use them but every year I put them on the tree… Not to mention the awful glitter holiday cards. I had to open my mother’s card over the trash can there was so much glitter! And hers wasn’t the only one… (no offense to glitter card-senders but really? so much glitter?) There was so much glitter in this house, and I cleaned all through the month…
The war is on. I will now have to vacuum and swiffer every day.

what's up?
My new dirt-devil hand vacuum, that is. What’s that you ask? Why did I have to get a new one? Well, let me tell you! Someone who lives here has cats. I won’t name names. He knows who he is… Anyway, the cats had made a very unfortunate mess around the litter box area. Very unfortunate, and wet. I won’t go into detail. I am sure the dp.com smell-o-blog technology has kicked in.
Anyhoo, at some point in the clean-up process someone who lives here decided that it would be easier to use the vacuum…
The next thing I know, it’s days later and I know nothing about it. I go to use the hand held vacuum to innocently remove some cat hair from the kitchen chair… the smell coming out of the vacuum was horrible. I notice something had dried on it… I open it…. it still had. Well.. It was dirty. I asked someone who lives here about it and he proceeded to say that perhaps I had unknowingly vacuumed up something wet. Um. Okay! NO! I said now we needed a new one. He tried to clean it… It still stank yesterday so I went to Lowe’s.
Aren’t you glad you asked about it?
